AC Milan and Slavia Prague

AC Milan and Slavia Prague will play in the second leg of the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 in Prague. The Dailysports analysts have created the match prediction.

Slavia Prague
Slavia dominated Teplice with a commanding 4-0 victory in the Czech league following a 2-4 loss to Milan in the first leg. This victory gave the season’s last game an amazing new twist by moving Slavia within one point of league leaders Sparta. Even though Slavia scored twice at San Siro, she was always aware of Milan’s higher caliber, especially in light of their numerical disadvantage.

Milan AC
Thanks to a goal from Christian Pulisic over the weekend, Stefano Pioli’s team defeated Empoli 1-0 to move up to second place in Serie A. Milan cemented their place in the top 4 by surpassing Juventus in the league standings. Given that Pioli rotated players in the match against Empoli, it is unlikely that Milan will start Slavia with a weaker team.

Prediction for Slavia Prague vs. AC Milan
Based on the two-leg match, Milan is predicted to move on to the quarterfinals. It is dangerous to wager on Rossoneri to win handily at home against Slavia. As a result, the forecast is an X2 outcome.
