THE PREDICTION
AC Milan have been flying high in La Liga but that is in stark contrast to their Champions League form as they sit on zero points after the first three games. Anything other than a win here could spell the end for their qualification hopes so this is a huge game for them. The Rossoneri are boosted by the return to fitness of the talismanic Zlatan Ibrahimovic and he could provide them with some extra bite in attack, but Porto will set up defensively and will aim to nullify the threat posed by the Serie A side. The visitors may well be content with a point here and this could be just as low-scoring as the reverse fixture two weeks ago. Under 2.5 goals is the tip.
