Porto Preview – Can Porto bounce back?
Porto were handed a heavy 5-1 defeat at home to Liverpool on Matchday 2 of this season’s Champions League but the Portuguese hosts hold home advantage once again on Matchday 3 where they’ll be looking to pull away from the bottom of Group B with a win over basement dwellers, AC Milan.
Porto have picked up just the one point to date from their opening two games of the group stage which was a 0-0 draw away from home at Atletico Madrid but the hosts will be keen to get the better of AC Milan on Wednesday night in order to stay in touch with the top two clubs.
The bigger picture shows that Porto have lost just four of their last 12 home ties in the Champions League while also picking up seven wins in the process.
AC Milan Preview – Can AC Milan avoid third loss on trot?
Back-to-back defeats in their opening two games in Group B have seen AC Milan make a disappointing start to this season’s Champions League campaign although losses against Liverpool and Atletico Madrid were against the top two clubs in this group.
AC Milan will therefore be keen to make the most of this upcoming clash against Porto but being away from home may well see the Italian visitors up against it yet again on Matchday 3 as they look to avoid a fifth defeat on the trot overall in the Champions League.
AC Milan last appeared in the Champions League back in 2014 where they were dealt a 5-1 loss on aggregate by Atletico Madrid, while the bigger picture shows that AC Milan have won just one of their last nine ties overall.
