Real Madrid vs AC Milan – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Real Madrid host AC Milan in a Champions League clash between the competition’s most successful sides this week.

The Spanish champions and iconic Italian side share 22 European Cup/Champions League crowns between them, each boasting a rich history in this competition.

Real Madrid regrouped from two goals down to thrash Borussia Dortmund last time out, while Milan got their campaign back on track by beating Club Brugge. The Rossoneri lost their opening two fixtures of the league phase.

The clash will also see former AC Mian favourite Carlo Ancelotti take on his old team. Ancelotti won two European Cups as a player with Milan before leading the side to titles in 2003 and 2007 as head coach. He has since won three Champions League trophies at Real Madrid to become the most successful manager in the competition’s history, with five triumphs.
