Welcome back for another Champions league preview. Today we will be talking about the round of 16 playoff between AC Milan of Italy and Arsenal of England.
The first match will take place on February 15 @ AC Milan in the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan, Italy. The second game will be on March 6 @ Arsenal at the Arsenal Stadium in London, England.
Now for some facts.
In the UEFA ranking Arsenal is ranked 5th and AC Milan is ranked at 11th. AC Milan have already won 7 Champion's League titles while Arsenal have won none. Arsenal won Group F with 11 of possible 18 points with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. AC Milan came in second place behind Barcelona in Group G, They had 9 of a possible 18 points with 2 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss.
Onto Leading Goalscorers,
AC Milan's Zlatan Ibrahimovic has 4 goals in 4 matches, Alexandre Pato and Boateng have 2 goals in 3 matches each, for Arsenal van Persie has 3 goals in 5 matches, and there are 4 others with 1 goal each including Yossi Benayoun
Now onto cards,
AC Milan's Alberto Aquilani has 1 red card which he got from a match where he got 2 yellow cards, Ambrosini and Van Bommel also have 2 yellow cards each.
For Arsenal, Tomas Rosický has 2 yellow cards, while 10 other players have 1 yellow card each
This is probably the toughest game for me to chose but I'm going to pick AC Milan to win this Round Of 16 playoff. Both teams are great and they both play well at their home field but AC Milan is a better team at away stadiums. AC MIlan played a good game against Barcelona who is the #1 ranked team in the tournament and would have gotten out of the match with some points if it hadnt been for an own goal.
I think the biggest thing that will determine the outcome of this playoff will be how Thierry Henry plays but he will only be there for the first match because he is only on a 2 month loan from the NY Red Bulls till the end of February. If he plays good then Arsenal will definitely have a chance to win, another thing is that AC Milan's last three UEFA Champions League campaigns have ended in a round of 16 defeat by English opponents so we'll see if they can break that streak or not.
