Team news
AC Milan News
Olivier Giroud, Samu Castillejo, and Ante Rebic have all been sidelined in recent weeks, with Pietro Pellegri joining them in the medical room after coming out after 15 minutes against Salernitana on Saturday due to a groin problem.
After being rested at the weekend, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is expected to lead the line, although Davide Calabria is still out, and Simon Kjaer will be sidelined for several months due to a severe ACL injury.
Despite Messias' heroics against Atletico, Mike Maignan's recent comeback is a significant boost, and Messias' heroics against Atletico may not be enough to see him beat Brahim Diaz in this critical match.
Liverpool News
Roberto Firmino, Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott, and the suspended James Milner are all out for Liverpool. Joe Gomez and Naby Keita have returned to training and could return in midweek.
With nothing on the line, Gomez and Keita will almost certainly not be risked right away, but Tyler Morton and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain should have opportunity to start in the midfield while Thiago Alcantara rests.
Ibrahima Konate, Kostas Tsimikas, Neco Williams, and Takumi Minamino could all be called into the starting XI, with Origi - whom Klopp joked he'd write a book about - leading the line.
Match facts

AC Milan vs Liverpool predictions
AC Milan started accumulating points in the Champions League in the fourth round and will be hoping they did not start too late.
After three straight losses in their first three games, they drew 1-1 with Porto then beat Atletico Madrid 1-0.
With four points, AC Milan is in third place in the group. While a win would not secure them a place in the knockout stages, it would ensure them a spot in the Europa League at the very least.
Prediction: AC Milan 0-2 Liverpool
