AC Milan vs Feyenoord predictions: Tense affair expected at the San Siro
&w=707&quality=100)
- AC Milan are seventh in Serie A on 41 points
- Feyenoord are fourth in the Eredivisie
- Recommended bet: Under 2.5 goals
AC Milan will hope to overturn a one-goal deficit and book their spot in the last-16 of the Champions League when they host Feyenoord on Tuesday night at the San Siro.
Igor Paixao's third-minute strike was enough for Feyenoord last week, with Mike Maignan making a mistake for the goal.
The winner of Tuesday's tie will set up a match against either Inter Milan or Arsenal and it promises to be a nail-biting encounter in Italy.
Team news
Sergio Conceicao will welcome Yunus Musah back from suspension after the Milan midfielder missed the first leg in Rotterdam.
However, Alessandro Florenzi, Emerson Royal and Pierre Kalulu remain unavailable, while Ruben Loftus-Cheek may start on the bench after recently recovering from a muscle problem and the short turnaround is far from ideal.
Feyenoord pair Ayase Ueda and Quinten Timber both had to be replaced during last week's first leg due to respective hamstring and knee injuries and they both missed the 0-0 draw against NEC Breda.
Interim boss Pascal Bosschaart is unable to call upon the services of Hwang In-beom, Calvin Stengs, Chris-Kevin Nadje, Bart Nieuwkoop, Ramiz Zerrouki, Jordan Lotomba, Justin Bijlow and Gernot Trauner.
The stats
AC Milan are unbeaten in 12 matches at the San Siro, winning seven of those games.
They have lost their last two Champions League ties, but they did win three of their four home games in the competition during the league stages.
Feyenoord are unbeaten in three matches in all competitions, keeping a clean sheet in each of those ties. However, the Dutch outfit have failed to win any of their last five on their travels.

Prediction
The first meeting between the two sides ended with a total of 1.07 XG between both teams, and there is a chance that the second leg will follow a similar pattern.
Feyenoord have failed to score more than one goal in any of their last five away matches and they have not troubled the scoresheet in their previous two road trips.
Milan's home record is pretty formidable but their inability to beat Feyenoord last week is a blemish on their record.
Backing a low-scoring game should be profitable, though, with under 2.5 goals landing in four of AC Milan's last five games, and three of Feyenoord's previous five.
