Milan Form and Team News

Milan are carrying what they did from the last season into this season after the first three games. They are winning all games comprehensively. They lost a tough match against Liverpool last week and but if they are able to produce performances as how we saw at the Anfield, then Milan could really make it count this season on the big stage as well. They are placed in the last position as of now even though it’s very early. Milan in the last season was one of the most exciting teams and turned back the years on quite a few occasions. They were even topping the league in certain stages of the season only to concede that to eventual champions Inter ending years of Juve dominance in Serie A.  

Stefano Pioli has managed to show his influence in Italian football with these two seasons at the helm with Milan, Last season was one of the best for the Italian in terms of results garnered as well. Giroud has taken Italy by storm netting in two goals in Serie A already. Tonali and Brahim Diaz have also managed to shake the inner netting at least once so far. The defence is where they should start working on and once that’s sorted, then Milan can go one position up from last season ending over ten years of wait for a league title. Zlatan has still not lit up the Milan games and even without that if Milan are playing well, we could be in for a real Milan show this season. 

Atletico Madrid Form and Team News

The Spanish Cup holders are still to get off the blocks after the first game, they have secured just one point with a draw. They drew the last game against FC Porto. Atletico Madrid played some inspirational football last season. They were so clinical that not even once in the entire season were they out of the first three positions in the league, they were the better team through the whole season and deservedly ended up winners as well. They are playing against AC Milan in the next match and they would want to start to dominate the CL. They have become the Spanish powerhouses after whatever they have done in the past few seasons, but one thing which is missing is a European Silverware which they can start eyeing to become World-beaters.

Diego Simeone has been spectacular with his reign at Atletico Madrid and he is starting to become a feared manager in the circuit. Given the form that both Real Madrid and Barcelona are in presently combined with all that’s been happening off the field as well, this season if Atletico can really capitalize, they can end up winning everything with the team they have. Luis Suarez has been playing like a dream and if he continues to do that, this team could really turn on the heat. The signing of Rodrigo De Paul also has been a highlight. The biggest surprise came on the last day of the transfer window when a certain former Atletico Legend Antonie Griezmann was signed back. This adds to a already spectacular line up a even more lethal lad.
