AC Milan vs Spal Prediction & Betting tips
The remaining six round of 16 matches are on the agenda at Coppa Italia during the week. On paper, the top favorites for the title have all been given feasible tasks. Due to the recent past, we would not necessarily count the AC Milan among the hottest contenders for the cup triumph; the Pioli team has nevertheless been assigned a releasable opening hurdle.
AC Milan vs. Spal Ferrara implies the odds of bookmakers a clear favorite in favor of the club that Coppa has won five times (most recently in 2003).
This assessment is not really surprising, because the guests from the Emilia-Romagna region are currently in last place in Serie A and have already suffered 13 losses in 19 games. Although the “Rossoneri” is also playing a weak season, they have had twice as many counters on the credit side as the upcoming opponent.
Because between AC Milan and Spal Ferrara a prediction of the favorites’ success is associated with too low quotations, we would instead focus on the goal market.
The “Biancazzurri” has the worst offensive in the Italian House of Lords and still presented itself against the highly valued top teams as an uncomfortable opponent. Consequently, we aim at AC Milan vs. Spal Ferrara a tip on a maximum of two hits in the course of the game.
AC Milan:
For those responsible for AC Milan, things are going haywire at the moment. After a miserable first half-series, the acting people from the management level are now obliged to strengthen their cadres in such a way that one can still think about moving into international business in the next five months.
It doesn’t matter which new additions are still presented; the king transfer has already succeeded the “Rossoneri” with Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It became clear last weekend that the commitment of the Swedish superstar not only leads the former world club back into the track in terms of media but also in terms of sport, when “IbraKadabra” marked the goal of the decisive 2: 0 win in Cagliari.
The 38-year-old was partly responsible for the fact that the Lombards took their first competitive win in the new year and left the field for the first time since December 8 in Serie A, let alone scored their own goal. In the three previous matches against Sassuolo (0: 0), Atalanta Bergamo (0: 5) and at home against Sampdoria (0: 0) the side of “Diavolo” was zero.
In general, the offensive is still the big construction site for the former Champions League winner. Coach Pioli’s team scored just 18 goals. Only three Serie A clubs were allowed to cheer even less. At least the defensive result is still within limits with 24 goals scored.
Since on Wednesday evening at Coppa Italia we again assume that the supposed favorite will have a hard time against a deep and tirelessly defending guest team, we hold AC Milan vs. Spal Ferrara the odds for a maximum of two hits in the course of the game for very lucrative. Especially against the background that the “Rossoneri” should take the cup seriously.
Coppa Italia may be the fastest way back to the international stage. It is by no means certain that the Pioli team, which currently only ranks tenth, will make the league among the top six. Accordingly, the fashion city will not show any nakedness and will confidently want to make it into the quarter-finals.
Nevertheless, the trainer will probably spin a bit. For example, it is questionable whether Ibrahimovic can play his second game within five days of the start. There are still question marks behind Ricardo Rodriguez and Lucas Biglia’s missions as well as behind ex-Frankfurt Rebic, who has not been the desired reinforcement for Milan anyway.
Spal Ferrara:
Last year, Spal Ferrara was very confident in keeping the 13th place in the Italian Beletage. In the current season, exactly this venture turns out to be much more difficult. After exactly half of all matches to be completed, the “Spallini” holds the red lantern.
So far, the “Biancazzurri” has only recorded twelve points. Three wins face three draws and 13 defeats. Nevertheless, the gap to the saving bank is only three points. Because relegation is a top priority in Serie A, it remains to be seen how seriously Coach Semplici will take Coppa Italia.
Despite the greater focus ’on league operations, Spal has already passed two hurdles in the current cup season. Although the 3-1 win over Feralpi was still under the category “expected win”, the 5-1 home win against the direct competitor Lecce was very surprising.
However, it would be presumptuous to deduce from this that the white and blue grow beyond themselves on Wednesday evening. Spal has won only one of the last twelve matches in the league and also lost the first two games in the new calendar year. Once again, the harmless offensive proved to be the biggest shortcoming. Only twelve goals scored (lowest value!) Underline the weakness in the game forward.
What should give the underdog hope is the fact that the “Spallini” can usually stand up well to teams of much higher quality. Among other things, you lost at Inter Milan only after a big fight with 1: 2 or even separated from Naples in a draw (1: 1). The league game against AC Milan was only narrowly lost with 0: 1.
In general, it can be stated that matches with the participation of the Semplici team usually end with just a few goals. In twelve out of 19 cases, a bet on a maximum of two hits would have been successful. Reca, d’Alessandro and Fares are injured.
