Clash between the giant from Portugal and the giant from Italy for the 3rd round of the Champions League in which the 2 clubs need to win to collect points.

Let's do it by steps ...

FC Porto had a very good Champions League competition last year reaching the quarter finals, losing only to Chelsea (who would win the competition), this same Porto team is practically all this year, with the exception of Marega .
The FC Porto team has been playing together for a long time and they know each other very well, that's why it's so hard to beat them.

Porto that counts 1 point in this competition achieved in Madrid against Atletico... I should have won the game.... Porto played very hard.
Then they lost at home to Liverpool 1-5, which in my opinion turns out to be normal. FC Porto has to get rid of this curse of the English teams...

AC Milan, on the other hand, has been doing very well in the Italian league, since I was a child I have admired Ac Milan and liked them a lot.
They are having a very good season, which is positive for the mentality of the team.

In the Champions League Milan struggled very well at Anfield with Briham Diaz in the spotlight, but ended up losing, and against the Madrid athlete it was a disappointment to have lost that game in the final minutes.

What circumstances will we find in this game?


FC Porto was very frustrated in the defeat against Liverpool, even Sergio Conceiçao went to talk to President Pinto da Costa to convey to him the lack of commitment of some players ... which says a lot about what Porto is.
FC Porto has all the players at their disposal and will leave field life to beat AC Milan and win 3 points. FC Porto strongly believes that it will pass to the next stage of the champions league.
We have to note that Porto have a team full of very talented players and that Milan will have a lot of difficulties in stopping them.

Milan already arrives in the city of Porto depleted.
Diaz, Hernandez, Maignam, and especially Rebic and Kessie are not going to the game. Clearly, Milan's squad still doesn't have replacements at the level of the players I just mentioned.


Overall prognosis....

I believe that FC Porto is a better team, it has better players overall (with a lot of experience in these games),
they have a full stadium pulling for them and they are going all out to win and beat AC Milan well. We all know that the Dragao Stadium is a very difficult place for all visitors who pass through it.

I also believe that AC Milan will have a lot of defensive problems. I don't like Ballo Toure and Romagnoli at all, they don't give me any confidence and Porto's talented strikers go after them.
