AC Milan vs Marseille - Football - Champions League - Tip Preview

Group C is still completely wide open & all 4 teams still have a near equal chance to qualify so clearly this match, and the other Group C match, are incredibly important & pressurised games.

AC Milan currently hold favouritism to win Group C as they sit top of the group level on points with Real Madrid but with a better head-to-head record.

Indeed, those two memorable matches against Real Madrid have transformed AC Milan's campaign with the win away in Madrid the most important of them all.

That victory away at Real Madrid gave the club a massive lift & certainly has boosted confidence within the team to new levels which is a very important factor coming into such a vital game.

AC Milan will be fully aware they slipped up against FC Zurich at home & that will make them aware of what Marseille can do and certainly we expect AC Milan to adopt a solid approach in this game.

The clear target for AC Milan in this match is victory as that would guarantee qualification & with the likes of Ronaldinho, Pirlo & Pato AC Milan have the quality to present a major threat to Marseille.

Marseille come into this game knowing that they probably do need a win as they face Real Madrid in the last match & so we do expect Marseille to continue with their positive approach in this match.

Marseille have looked fantastic on occasions & very poor on other occasions so it is hard to know what to expect from Marseille in terms of the quality of their performance but we do expect them to attack AC Milan & have a real go.

Both AC Milan & Marseille have displayed a tendency to be defensively fragile & so goals could arrive in what looks set to be an open game of football & one which we think AC Milan look a very solid bet to get another vital win.
