Red Bull - Milan team news and expert analysis
The Salzburg club not only failed to reclaim the league title last season, but also finished just third in the final standings. However, they have made a strong start this time around, recording plenty of wins alongside a couple of draws. Their match against GAK ended goalless.
The San Siro giants battled Inter for top spot for much of the 2025/2026 season. However, they eventually slipped to fifth in the final stretch. This season, too, under Ruben Amorim, they followed a couple of victories with draws against stronger opponents, Juventus and Lazio. They also drew 1-1 with Sassuolo.
The Austrians came through the summer qualifiers, eliminating Pafos and Mjällby. Then, in the opening round of the league phase, they secured victory thanks to Tabaković's only goal. The ambitious Italians produced an unpleasant surprise, losing 0-2 at home to a strong Benfica side.
