The UEFA Champions League gets up and running tonight and the pick of the games sees Liverpool head to the San Siro to take on AC Milan.
It's a repeat of the 2005 final, which is regarded as one of the greatest games of all time after the Reds came from 3-0 down in Istanbul to shock the Serie A giants.
AC Milan got their revenge with a 2-1 win in the 2007 final but it was Liverpool who came out on top in the group stage three years ago, winning home and away.
They will only face each other once this year in the revamped league phase and it's Milan with home advantage but their form isn't great, with just one win in four Serie A matches.
Liverpool also head to the San Siro on a downer, though, after their perfect Premier League record came to an abrupt end with a shock 1-0 loss at home to Nottingham Forest.

AC Milan vs Liverpool top betting tips
This is a tough one to call with the Italians having home advantage but Betfred make Liverpool odds-on favourites at 19/2, with Milan as big as 13/5.
New Reds boss Arne Slot seems to have concentrated on tightening things up at the back, with just one goal conceded in their four games. BTTS has failed to land in any of their matches so far and that suggests backing a tight game here might be the best choice.
Betting against BTTS pays 11/8 with Betfred while under 2.5 goals is the same price. The half-time draw also appeals and that pays 11/8 too.
The midfield battle will be key and Liverpool's Ryan Gravenberch looks a decent long-odds option for a card at 4/1.
Young Boys vs Aston Villa top tips
Aston Villa are back at Europe's top table for the first time in four decades and have a winnable game on the road against Young Boys.
The Swiss side caused an upset in the play-off round by dumping Turkish giants Galatasaray but their domestic form has been terrible, with three draws and three defeats in their six league games so far.
That's why Betfred make Young Boys 4/1 outsiders tonight, with Aston Villa the 4/6 favourites. Going for goals usually pays off with Villa, with BTTS and over 2.5 goals landing in three of their four games so far.
Combining those picks in a bet builder tonight only take you to 4/5 though so it's better going for player bets. Ollie Watkins got up and running with a weekend double and he's a tempting 6/5 to score again tonight.
The card markets are worth a look as well and Villa skipper John McGinn is 13/5 to go into the book.
Real Madrid vs Stuttgart top betting tips
Real Madrid kick off their Champions League title defence with a visit from Stuttgart and it's hard to see the Germans causing an upset.
Carlo Ancelotti's side were a cut above in this tournament last term and went unbeaten across the whole tournament so they're justified 2/7 hot favourites with Betfred.
Superstar Kylian Mbappe arrived from PSG in the summer to boast an already impressive attack so I fancy Real Madrid to win both halves at 8/5.
Mbappe is just 8/13 for a goal but Ancelotti's other stars are all at odds-against and I'm on Vincius Junior to score at 6/5, with the Brazilian netting two times in his last three games.

BTTS 10-11 ⚽ NAP/NB ⚽ BETWAY
Double stake..
All eggs in the BTTS basket 🧺.
Could have gone BTTS overs for the NB at 6-4 but there is a lot on this game as they both are chasing a play off spot with 5 games to go.
If there is a winner it’s likely to be Wexford though bray have the better recent h2h record
All 3 games this season seen BTTS and overs.
They have met 10 times in the last 2 years with 9 BTTS and 7 of them BTTS and over.
Last 6 at this venue were BTTS.
Worry is brays recent form but they have scored in their last 10 visits here with 9 of them BTTS.
Prediction 0-0 🙈
Ok, 1-1 then……
That 0-0 is looking likely…
Still some time yet,as stated a lot a stake so maybe teams not playing to win but playing not to give anything away 🤔
That’s peak man, double stake as well
GomezJ, if we always won, it wouldn’t be gambling, would it? 😉
Bigwig strikes again. Tips always worth a follow. Sadly I chucked in btts and cost myself
