Expert Betting Tips
Milan are off to a good start in the new season. We especially should mention the Rossoneri winger Leão, as the Portuguese is slowly becoming the leader of the Milan club. Now he has to show his class on the European stage. We expect that Leão will be the main threat for the whole Salzburg defensive line, and AC Milan will justify their status as favorites in Austria. We suggest considering the following bets for the upcoming game:
- W2 for 2.05;
- 1st Half W2 for 2.52;
- Correct Score 1-2 for 8.50.
