Prediction
The two teams are in contrasting form this season and should be decided in Tuesday’s game.
Cyril Dessers, Ionut Radu and Vlad Chiriches miss Cremonec due to injuries. Meanwhile, Milan will be without several players in Tuesday’s matches. Olivier Giroud and Theo Hernandez were suspended, while Alessandro Florenci, Mike Minan, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Alexis Salemics and David Calabria missed out. Given the difference in form and quality between the two teams, it’s hard to imagine what Cremonese would give up in this game. We predict that “Milan” will easily win the match.
