Champions League picks for AC Milan vs. Liverpool

Before you tune in to Tuesday's match, you need to see the UEFA Champions League picks from betting expert Martin Green . After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Last year he was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), the EFL Cup (+4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05) among others.

For Liverpool vs. AC Milan, Green is backing the visiting team to win on the 90-minute money line for a -110 payout. Both of these teams were just outside of serious title contention domestically last season, with AC Milan finishing 19 points behind Inter Milan for second in Serie A while Liverpool was nine points off the title pace for third in the EPL.

However, it's been Liverpool that has looked like the bigger trophy threat early in 2024-25, with clean sheet wins over Ipswich Town, Brentford and Manchester United before finally suffering their first loss this weekend. Meanwhile, AC Milan drew against Torino at home to open their season, lost to Parma and then drew against Lazio before finally earning their first win this weekend against Venezia.

"Liverpool's players are rapid on the counterattack and dangerous at set pieces, so they have enough quality to capitalize upon AC Milan's defensive vulnerabilities," Green told SportsLine. "That could ultimately allow them to leave Italy with all three points on Tuesday." Stream the game here and check out full soccer coverage on CBS Sports Golazo Network .
