1st Prediction for AC Milan vs Club Brugge: Milan to Win – 1.52 with No Bonus Sports
Even though AC Milan have failed to win either of their opening Champions League matches so far, I expect them to get a win on the board against Club Brugge. It should be a tight game between the two sides, but I think the quality Milan possesses in their ranks should see them through at the San Siro.
2nd Prediction for AC Milan vs Club Brugge: Milan to Win and Both teams to Score – 3.00 with Myriadplay sports
As I have said I think Milan will win but it should be a close fought contest against a Brugge side that know how to find the back of the net. With that in mind I think the Milan to win and both teams to score has a lot of appeal ahead of the game on October 22nd.
3rd Prediction for AC Milan vs Club Brugge: Half Time/Full Time Result- Draw/ AC Milan– 3.12 with Betarno
Given how tight I predict the winning margin to be for Milan against Brugge, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if the game were level at the half time break, with Milan’s greater quality not coming to the fore until the second half. Odds of 3.12 with Betarno for it to be tied at the break and Milan to win after 90 minutes might be worth a second look.

Full Preview of the Game: Last Results and Head-to-Head
Paulo Fonseca’s AC Milan have not had a good start to the League Phase of this season’s Champions League, suffering two defeats in their first two games. A 1-3 defeat to Liverpool on matchday 1 was followed by a 0-1 loss against Bayer Leverkusen in Germany on matchday 2, leaving the Rossoneri sitting in 32nd place out of 36 teams after two rounds of matches.
Their domestic form is better however as new manager Fonseca has started with 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats in the 7 games before the October international break, which sees them in 6th place in the Serie A table.
Club Brugge have 3 points after two games of the League Phase, losing to Dortmund in the opening round of games before beating Austrian side Sturm Graz 1-0 on matchday 2. They currently sit in 21st place of the 36 teams in the League Phase.
Brugge have had a mixed start to their Belgian Jupiler Pro League season with 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats in their opening 10 matches leaving them in 5th place ahead of the international break. They also lost the Belgian Super Cup to Union SG 1-2.
The two sides have met four times in Champions League or European Cup history, with Milan winning on two occasions, Brugge winning once and there has been one draw.
I expect it to be a close game when AC Milan face off against Club Brugge but I think the Italian side should have just about enough to get their Champions League campaign going with a win.
