Preview
Milan come into this after a 1-0 away win over Atletico Madrid on MD 5 to keep their qualification hopes alive.
Messias scored the only goal of the contest three minutes from time to save Milan from being knocked out.
After MD 4, it looked all over for Milan but other results going their way helped them stay alive and to win on the next subsequent matchday, made it even better.
The Italian side need to go out on all cylinders if they are to seal their spot in the Round of 16.
With 4 points from 5 matches, Milan is 3rd in the group B table.
On the other end, Liverpool is on top of the table with 5 wins from 5 matches. Having already qualified, they could experiment with their line-up but a record to finish the group stage with 6 wins is no mean feat.
Hence, we see them going all out in this one just as well. The Reds beat Porto 2-0 on MD 5 to continue their good form.
Thiago and Salah were the scorers as Liverpool made it 5 in 5.
Both sides last met on MD 1 in Liverpool, where it ended 3-2 in favour of the Reds.
There is plenty to play for in this one and we can expect a cracker of a contest.

We expect Milan to go into this with utmost confidence and belief of getting the job done.
An inexperienced Liverpool side may come up short here as they do not have much to fight for since they are through to the RO 16.
It’s all for Milan to play for and we see them nicking this clash.
Players to watch out for: Ibrahimovic, Diaz, Origi and Salah.
