Milan host Man United at the San Siro Stadium (Milan) in the second leg of the Round of 16 in the Europa League and the match kicks off at 8 pm (UK) on Thursday, March 18. Read our reasons for Milan vs Man United prediction and betting tips.
Man United’s first Europa League encounter with AC Milan at Old Trafford was a very even contest and few would argue 1-1 was a fair result. After their stoppage-time equaliser at Old Trafford last week, Milan have an advantage coming into the re-match on Thursday night. However, all is not lost for Manchester Utd, as the Italian giants are winless in their last four home games and have actually failed to score in four of their last seven at San Siro. Truly told, neither side are playing particularly well at the moment but you can't help but feel United will live to regret that late goal conceded in the first leg.
Both teams went close to breaking the deadlock in a cagey first half last week, with Franck Kessie having a goal harshly ruled out for handball and Harry Maguire somehow missing from close range. Substitute Amad Diallo, 18, then headed United in front, cleverly latching onto a fine floated pass from Bruno Fernandes. That looked set to be the decider, but Milan finally got their reward for an industrious effort when Simon Kjaer nodded past a weak Dean Henderson attempt to save in stoppage time.
Milan are working to grow and bring back where they belong – among the European elite. The first leg was a great performance and a great result, but the Rossoneri need another perfect performance to qualify against such a strong team as United. Moreover, Milan’s Serie A title hopes have slipped away due to Sunday’s 1-0 home loss to Napoli making it three defeats in six domestic games and here they must hold to a slight advantage going into the second leg to avoid another disappointment.
Meanwhile, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted United were below par in the opening encounter, looking very much second best as Milan led 15-7 in terms of attempts on goal. The Red Devils will take heart from an impressive away record in the Premier League this term, while they also thrashed Real Sociedad 4-0 in Turin in the last round. Also, having David De Gea, Cavani, Martial, Rashford, and possibly even Pogba back available after recent absences is a huge boost.
Although winning the league looks beyond them, United’s recent away win to City will have given them belief that they can win silverware and are rightfully one of the favourites for the Europa League title. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have lost just one of their last 18 matches in all comps. However, when failing to win the first leg at home, United have been eliminated from six of their last eight ties in European competition, including one against Milan in 2004-05 in the UEFA Champions League.

Milan meet Man United having met five times in the European Cup or Champions League, prior to the draw in the first leg of this tie, including three times at the semi-final stage, and the score stands at 4-1 in the favour of the Italians.
The return fixture in Italy promises to be another close contest and if the Italian outfit are as sharp on the ball as they were last week, we expect them to progress, so the BettingKick’s Milan vs Man United prediction is: Milan win
