I don't expect Chelsea to be this much comfortable in San Siro. Maybe Milan weren't able to do much against Chelsea away and lost the match by a comfortable score like 3-0. However Milan are still a huge threat in the group and I don't think they would play at a similar level to their last head-to-head match. But it is still too difficult for them to beat Chelsea of course. There isn't a single match that Chelsea lost against them in the Champions League in the past.

I think this time the scenario will be like this: Milan score first but Chelsea equalize the score. Then a 1-1 draw at the end of the match.

I won't bet on this score but I'll add both teams to score to my parlay.

I don't think, Chelsea will allow Milan strikers to achieve a goal in their second leg than to increase the goals to 4-0 for the favour of Chelsea because their new coach has introduced more tactics that will help the team to maintain the victory till the end of the tournament. Milan are still lacking in the areas of defense and midfield, which will be the advantage Chelsea will use in this second leg to achieve many goals that will make their fans believe that this season will be for their favour. If Milan coach can work on their defense and midfield before the end of this tournament, it will help them to improve in other competitions.

This time they will be playing in Italy and is much different from Chelsea,we have seen in the Premier League that Chelsea has not been doing that well when playing away and the new coach sure has started with the right foot by winning against Crystal Palace away but in Champions we have yet to see a win outside home for Chelsea.I believe Milan will play much but much better in Italy in front of their home fans which are expecting a victory from Milan in order to turn things around and to be able to get a spot past the group stage.

One thing that makes me feel confident for Chelsea who are unlikely to lose in the away match against Milan is about their new coach, Graham Potter seems to have a good ability because so far Chelsea have not lost after changing coaches. With a result like that it is very likely Chelsea will maintain this kind of performance at least not to lose points, a draw could be their target at the San Siro. I also don't think Milan are weak because so far Milan have had good results when playing at home, but when the Chelsea defense is at its best then the result is clean sheets for Chelsea because Chelsea have a good and strong defense.
