THE KEY STATS

  • Milan have lost only two of their last eight UEFA club competition matches against French teams (W4 D2).
  • Milan have lost only two of their previous 14 UEFA club competition matches at home against French teams (W9 D3).
  • Rennes have won eight of their last 12 UEFA club competition matches away from home (D1 L3).
  • Rennes have only failed to score in two of their last 25 UEFA club competition matches.
  • Rennes have scored two or more goals in six of their last seven UEFA Europa League matches.
  • Rennes have lost their previous three UEFA club competition matches away from home against Italian teams.

THE PREDICTION

Whenever two teams from Europe’s big five leagues meet this early in a UEFA Europa League knockout tie, it is worth keeping an eye on – especially when both teams come into it on the back of good form. Seven-time European champions AC Milan edged past Napoli by a goal to nil on Sunday evening, meaning that the Rossoneri are now unbeaten in their last nine matches in Serie A. They face a Stade Rennais side that have entered into some excellent form of their own either side of the French winter break, under the management of Julien Stephan. The visitors have won their last eight matches across all competitions and will go to San Siro with a lot of confidence. Milan are favourites but both teams scoring would seem quite likely.

TIP: AC MILAN TO WIN & BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
