Considering how AC Milan dominated in the match with Dortmund and created many opportunities in middle of the week, Verona looks like not to be an opponent that can constrain attacking power of AC Milan. They will even face with bigger pressure from AC Milan as the host actually need three points after some bad matches in Serie A. AC Milan players hopefully learned something from their inaccurate shots in Champions League match with Dortmund.
Playing a Champions League match and a league match are different things. When they play the Champions League, they prepare for that match with full concentration, they care more about that match. Because only 6 matches are played there in the group stage and there is no compensation for the mistakes made. In league matches, there is compensation for mistakes, they play 38 matches throughout the season. Lost points can be compensated.
Since they put in a lot of effort in the CL match, they may come into this match tired, rotate too much, and not be able to focus much. Although Hellas Verona is not a team of Milan's quality, they will play to get points knowing these. Milan needs to pay attention and care about the match. Otherwise, it's difficult for them to win.
I disagree with what you said about the 38 matches with compensation. A team can't rule out competition even with a huge number of matches each season. If they think that, then they will never progress.
It may be true at first glance, but if we look further, it is a mistake that should be avoided. It's also worth remembering that they're in the Champions League because of the competition in the domestic league, in this case Serie A. If they think they are compensating for the mistakes they made in the domestic league with a large number of matches it is a mistake they are making,
@LGD2Business I don’t think they should take this match lightly. I think they should try to get three points from this match. Because Verona is actually not the type of opponent that is at the same level of Milan. They should really look to get maximum results from this match because they need to stay at the top of the table.
And the thing is you know they have lost the last match. So they will try to win this match for sure. I think it is actually Verona who is going to be under pressure in this match. Verona has not played well in the last two matches. So the confidence is definitely not going to be very good.
