In last season’s Champions League, AC Milan found themselves in a true “group of death,” finishing in third place behind PSG and Borussia Dortmund, who both went on to reach the semifinals. However, the Rossoneri managed to finish ahead of Newcastle. Milan then competed in the Europa League, where they were eventually knocked out by AS Roma in the quarterfinals.
During the summer, Paulo Fonseca replaced Stefano Pioli as Milan’s head coach, but the team had a rough start. In their first three Serie A matches, Milan earned just 2 points—draws against Torino (2-2) and Lazio (2-2), and a loss to Parma (1-2). There were even talks in the press about Fonseca’s potential dismissal, but over the weekend, Milan finally secured their first win of the season, thrashing Venezia 4-0 at home.
There’s not much to say about Liverpool’s performance in last season’s Champions League, as the Reds didn’t participate. Instead, they played in the Europa League, where they reached the quarterfinals but were surprisingly eliminated by Atalanta, who went on to win the trophy.
In the new season, Liverpool is adjusting to life without the legendary Jürgen Klopp. The team is now led by Dutch coach Arne Slot, who is working under difficult conditions—over the summer, the club only signed Federico Chiesa. Liverpool started the season brilliantly with three consecutive wins over Ipswich (2-0), Brentford (2-0), and Manchester United (3-0). However, on Saturday, Liverpool suffered a shocking 0-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Anfield.
