AC Milan vs Rennes Prediction & Match Preview

• AC Milan won six and drew one of the last seven matches in the Serie A.
• Three of Rennes’ previous four games produced three or more goals.
• We also saw at least three goals in seven of the last eight outings AC Milan played across competitions.

AC Milan will continue their European adventures in UEFA Europa League. They host Rennes in the first leg of the knockout stage playoffs on Thursday evening at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Both teams will enter the tie in high spirits after recent domestic successes. The hosts are the favourites due to richer European experience and the quality of the roster.

AC Milan kept ground on Inter Milan and Juventus at the top of the Serie A standings with a 1-0 win over reigning champions Napoli on Sunday. Theo Hernandez’s first-half strike made the difference between the two teams. I Rossoneri kept control of the happenings on the pitch throughout the whole affair.

Rennes continued their excellent spell of form with a 1-0 win at Le Havre on Sunday. Benjamin Bourigeaud notched the only goal of the game. It was the team’s eight wins on the trot across competitions. The run involves a win on penalties over Marseille in the last-32 round of Coupe de France last month.

AC Milan vs Rennes Prediction

AC Milan won six, drew one, and lost one of the last eight home affairs across competitions. They are also on a run of six wins and a draw in the previous seven Serie A matches. Stefano Pioli’s men have shown a fantastic attacking form along the way.

While Rennes have also grown in form and confidence of late, we can hardly see them pulling off a result at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Les Rouges et Noirs suffered two defeats to Spanish Villarreal in the group stage of the UEFA Europa League. We’ll back I Rossoneri to win at the 1.65 odds.

Seven of AC Milan’s last eight matches in all competitions produced three or more goals. We’ve seen the same scenario in all but one of Rennes’ past four outings in all competitions. Also, three or more goals were scored in each of Rennes’ last four games in the group stage of Europa League. The value is fantastic with the Over 2.5 goals FT pick at the 1.85 odds.
