Milan vs Feyenoord Prediction 18 February 2025
🔊 Can Feyenoord maintain the advantage gained in the first match? On February 12, the team from the Netherlands displayed very high-quality football and defeated Milan with a clean sheet (1-0). Despite the Dutch team's local success, the "Rossoneri" are still considered favorites to advance to the next round of the Champions League. In this situation, we will try to analyze all the details to provide you with an accurate prediction for the match that will take place at "San Siro."
Head-to-Head
The game that took place last week (1-0) was the first-ever head-to-head between Milan and Feyenoord. Both clubs acted too cautiously, unwilling to take unnecessary risks. Moreover, the only goal scored was quite peculiar - Mike Maignan once again conceded in the near corner from a not very convenient position for the shooter.
Head-to-head statistics Milan - Feyenoord
AC Milan Team Overview
Milan is the most unpredictable team in Italy this season. The "Rossoneri" are capable of defeating any opponent, but they can also lose to anyone, showing inconsistency in the quality of play. The match against Feyenoord, which took place last week (0-1), cannot be considered a success for Milan. Yes, Sergio Conceicao's squad had 6 shots on goal, but they were not dangerous (xG 0.57). However, the team managed to dismantle Verona's defense piece by piece last weekend (1-0), despite fielding a semi-reserve lineup. Regarding the upcoming clash, the coaching staff will not be able to rely on 6 players, but all key players will be available to take the field.

Feyenoord Rotterdam Team Overview
Feyenoord is going through a tough period. The team is facing significant personnel issues, which has caused them to stop achieving the desired results in individual matches. Even in the upcoming clash, 13 players, including Gernot Trauner, Justin Bijlow, and Hwang In-beom, will be unable to participate for various reasons. Last weekend, the Dutch side couldn't overcome Breda (0-0), a team in the lower half of the league table. However, in the first game against Milan (1-0), the "Pride of the South" found the resources to repeatedly disrupt the opponent's attacks and strike a decisive blow on goal. There is no doubt that in the return leg, Feyenoord will play to maintain the score unless the team quickly concedes two goals themselves.

⚽️ Prediction on Goals
The first encounter between these teams did not leave a strong impression. Those who decided to spend the evening watching this match ended up regretting the time spent. Milan and Feyenoord played extremely cautious football, statistically not creating a single scoring chance against each other. The xG figures were very low - 0.50 against 0.57 in favor of the Italian club. It is likely that the return game will follow a similar scenario, so we advise considering the option of total goals under 2.5. Moreover, this bet has been successful in 4 out of the last 5 matches involving the "Rossoneri".
🚩 Prediction on Corners
Despite the lackluster football in the first encounter, the teams regularly approached the corner flag. In 90 minutes, Feyenoord and Milan earned a total of 11 corners (5-6). However, such figures should not be surprising. Both teams have quite high numbers in this statistical parameter and are among the leaders in their respective leagues. For example, the "Rossoneri" average 5.8 corners per match, while the "Pride of the South" averages 6.1. We believe that in the upcoming match, a bet on total corners over 9.5 will succeed without much trouble.
Editor's Prediction
The bookmakers have no doubt that in the upcoming encounter, Milan will not only secure a victory but also earn a ticket to the next round of the Champions League. And we completely agree with their opinion. Despite the instability of Sérgio Conceição's team, Feyenoord is currently not in a condition to compete equally with such an opponent. Due to injuries, the Dutch club cannot rely on half of its key players, and several newcomers, including Oussama Targaline and Liam Bossin, have missed out on the tournament altogether due to UEFA's registration restrictions. Yes, in the first match Feyenoord managed to neutralize all the attacks of the "Rossoneri," but they were aided by their home ground then. In the upcoming encounter, the "Pride of the South" will not have such an advantage, and therefore their defense should crack. As the main betting option, we will choose Milan's victory with a handicap (-1). We believe the Italian team will win with a score of 2-0.
