Milan Benfica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Looking at these two teams, we believe Benfica will takes the lead. The eagles must dominate and have the best chances to score goals, largely because of the advanced stage of the season; however, Milan has a very dangerous and experienced attack, capable of scoring goals during their matches. Thus, this match should not be much different from the typical friendly encounters, open and with several chances of goals. So, we admit that both Milan and Benfica will be able to score at least one goal.

Preview
Milan and Benfica meet at Gillette Stadium, in a match for this stage of the International Champions Cup (Regular Season). There is no recent record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams. The last head‑to‑head was played on 08‑08‑2009 and ended with the final score: Benfica (1‑1) Milan.

Analysis Milan

They come to this stage of the International Champions Cup (Regular Season) after having eliminated Bayern München with a loss by (1‑0) in the previous round. Milan has won 5, tied 1 and lost 4 of the last 10 matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Milan began the preseason with a 1-0 loss against Bayern Munich. It should be noted that in this match the Italians did not have much argument to stop a team that is at an early stage of the season. Nonetheless, the coach Marco Giampaolo must maintain the last-match scheme, namely 4-3-3, benefiting from a more supported playing style, with successive offensive organizations mainly through the flanks: Samu Castillejo and Fabio Borini are fastest and most dangerous players in front of attack. On the other hand, Hakan Çalhanoglu is very important in AC Milan's offensive match, as he is a great pass holder. For this match, and not having great solutions in the squad, the coach should align a team very similar to the last friendly.

Confirmed Lineup: Gianluigi Donnarumma, Mateo Musacchio, Davide Calabria, Ricardo Rodríguez, Alessio Romagnoli, Lucas Biglia, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Samu Castillejo, Suso, Fabio Borini, Krzysztof Piątek.
Coach: S. Pioli.

Analysis Benfica

They come to this stage of the International Champions Cup (Regular Season) after a win by (1‑2) against Fiorentina. In the last 10 matches Benfica has won 8 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches.

Benfica has been surprising in this preseason stage and now has 3 consecutive wins, the last one against Fiorentina by 1-2: the goals of the Portuguese were signed by Seferovic and Caio Lucas. The other two wins were against Académica and Chivas. Now against AC Milan, Italy's most advanced team, compared to Fiorentina, the coach Bruno Lage must be more cautious, benefiting from defensive organization and flanking transitions. Seferovic is very dangerous in front of Benfica's attack: this athlete is very powerful and very strong in finishing. Compared to the previous match, the coach should make few changes in the starting eleven.

Confirmed Lineup: Odysseas Vlachodimos, Rúben Dias, Álex Grimaldo, Francisco Ferreira, Nuno Tavares, Rafa Silva, Gabriel Pires, Adel Taarabt, Pizzi, Ljubomir Fejsa, Haris Seferović.
Coach: R. Schmidt.
