But I think it's better to wait for the results of AC Milan's match against Venezia, if he wins then the odds we get can be much higher, at least can touch 2x although it's quite difficult to imagine if against Liverpool with a good match at the beginning of the season in the domestic league and the matches that AC Milan has gone through in the domestic league, people will think that surely Liverpool can beat AC Milan easily, as well as the bookie.

But if confidence starts to grow again when winning against Venezia I think as you said there will be a readjustment, and I expect much higher than 1.83.
There's no need to wait the results against Venezia because Milan was lose against Torino in home, while Liverpool won two times away, that's why the bookie list Liverpool a favorite in this match. Probably it will end in draw or Liverpool to win, it's high unlikely Milan will pull the upsets.

Considering there are no important players in Liverpoo injured, I'm confident Liverpool will win the match.

I don't mean to underestimate Atalanta, but when compared to other clubs in the Champions League, there are several clubs above them in terms of strength, including Arsenal in my opinion which is slightly better than Atalanta. However, they are still a club to be reckoned with and anyone who faces them must be careful.
Last season in the Europa League was a real example when they managed to beat the strongest candidate to become champions. Almost everyone was not on their side, but in the match they were actually able to become winners, including beating a club that was unbeaten in all competitions last season.
On the other hand, the difference is that because the Champions League is different from the Europa League, here they will get more pressure, so they must be ready for that by improving their mentality.
On paper, Atalanta is the underdog facing Arsenal or another team. But football isn't played on paper. The Europa League victory of Atalanta was not luck. They outplayed Leverkusen, were strategically smart, resilient, and more than just good

Champions League is definitely more difficult. Still, this Atalanta team has tasted European excellence. They are aware of the requirements for winning in huge stakes. Serie A form is a bit shaky. Real magic, though, occurs in the Champions League. It's where underdogs start to become legends

Atalanta has experience; they have tactical nous; they have that drive to prove themselves on the largest arena. Undervaluate them at your own risk. This is about who has the greater heart and the better game plan, not about who has a bigger name. And Atalanta had both in spades

7 wins for Real Madrid, 3 wins for Liverpool and 1 other match ended in a draw. That is the record of meetings between Real Madrid vs Liverpool. Real Madrid has always been superior when facing Liverpool in the last few seasons, and even the last victory achieved by Liverpool was in 2008/2009, meaning they have not been able to beat Real Madrid for more than a decade.
These head-to-head results show that Liverpool are under Real Madrid in quality and failed in many recent matches against Los Blancos. They failed even in golden time with Klopp years ago and now with a new coach, Slot, they will struggle more when playing against Real Madrid. Facing with a most successful club in Champions League and lately got a super star player like Mbappe, will not be easy for Liverpool in this season.

Quote
Of course this is an additional job for Liverpool because they have to break the bad record they always receive when facing Real Madrid. It is certainly a challenge for Arne Slot as Liverpool's new coach this season.
Luckily Liverpool will face with not only Real Madrid but also other clubs and they have opportunity to go to a next phase of Champions League 2024 - 2025 season even if they fail against Real Madrid in their direct match. With quality of Liverpool and their early performances this season, I see they're able to take top positions in their group.

That's a fair take fr. I'm not gonna lie, Madrid has been Liverpool's greatest nemesis in the last decade. Iirc, we didn't get a single win off of Real Madrid during the entire Klopp era. Hopefully this time is different but I have very little expectations — maybe Liverpool gets off with a win at Anfield but lose or draw at Real Madrid's home. Leverkusen could pose a threat, even Leipzig (let's not forget that Leipzig ended Leverkusen's unbeaten run in the Bundesliga).

These small teams too don't need to bw underestimated.

As expected, after a pretty bad start of the season, the odds makers don't have faith in Milan being able to defeat Liverpool even considering home advantage.
But who knows, maybe it's a good betting opportunity. For a double-chance bet (1X) you can now get x1.83.
It's worth to remind that AC Milan has a new manager, Paulo Fonseca, and maybe the poor start is just due to the time it take for the team to adjust to new style etc.
Milan is playing a potentially easy game against Venezia on Saturday. If they win it easily, their confidence might grow and the odds will probably get adjusted, so maybe it's worth to take the risk and place a bet before the weekend.
This is a very interesting match because it is also about the future of Fonseca's coaching career at Milan. How could it not be, so far AC Milan has not shown its best performance in the domestic league, they have not even won a single match. So it is very natural that Liverpool is favored in this match.

AC Milan has hopes to regain their confidence before meeting Liverpool because after the international break they will face Venezia first. This match will be a match that AC Milan must win because if they fail to win, they will most likely suffer a big defeat when they face Liverpool later.

Indeed, Fonseca's test is very tough, after facing Liverpool they will also face Inter Milan in the domestic league. So if you look at AC Milan's schedule in the next three matches, it will determine Fonseca's fate at Milan. If Fonseca fails to bring his team to positive results, Fonseca will most likely be fired. Btw in this match I will bet on Liverpool's victory because Liverpool's performance so far has been very impressive under coach Arne Slot.

I'm a Liverpool fan and if I'm being honest, that stats about not conceding any goals so far is just good for the records. The real test is going to be how long this Liverpool team can go before they lose it. My guess? Pretty soon.  Liverpool have won Milan a couple of times in the past so I'm sure that fixture will bring a lot of memories. I'm not saying this Liverpool team slot is building is not it but just stating some fact that Milan, despite starting poorly this season, shouldn't be underestimated.
About AC Milan vs Liverpool this is their first met after 2021 in Champion league and if we see based on head to head statistics in the last few years both teams has been met several times and i can see Liverpool has good records from Milan moreover we all know although both teams has new manager but Liverpool performance is much better compared to Milan because Liverpool under Arne Slot still managed their unbeated records since pre season tour and if we see from their recent performance i think Liverpool should be able to overcomes Milan

Just like i said before Liverpool strongest opponent for League phase is only Real Madrid and i know they also will facing Leverkusen but i don't think Leverkusen still very strong like last season even they just suffered a defeat in the Bundesliga so i am confident Liverpool also can beat Leverkusen and besides these teams Liverpool only will facing Leipzig, Bologna, Lille, PSV and Girona which the status of these teams is only mediocre teams

That's a fair take fr. I'm not gonna lie, Madrid has been Liverpool's greatest nemesis in the last decade. Iirc, we didn't get a single win off of Real Madrid during the entire Klopp era.

Nobody underestimated Atalanta in the Champions League when they were the best team in Europe last season, especially as winners of the Europa League title. Atalanta is one of the best representing Serie A in the Champions League this season, but I agree that there are still stronger teams than Atalanta in the Champions League so it is very likely that Atalanta is not on the favorites list.

So far Atalanta has not started the season well, especially in Serie A. Atalanta was only able to win one of the first three matches and only got 3 points. Losing two consecutive matches has left Atalanta stuck in 12th place in the Serie A standings, so I don't think Atalanta will impress in the Champions League if they don't improve.

I think any team that tries to underestimate Atalanta will be disappointed because they are full of surprises, Atalanta is the current champions of Europa League last season after defeating the team that was seen as the favorite to win the competition and this season Atalanta is among the SeriaA teams playing in the champions league. They may not have started very well in their domestic league but you can not compare their performance in the champions League competition and that of their league because they wouldn't want to disappoint their fans by not performing well in the group stages.

Atalanta may not be seen as the favourite in the champions league competition but it takes a good performance for the chances of the team to win the league to be increased so if Atalanta shows good performance in the league it won't take time for their chances of winning the champions League be increased.

We have seen Milan perform well in friendly matches before the start of the season. We thought AC Milan would come back stronger this season. But we have yet to see Milan play well in their three matches in Serie A. The Milan team could not win even one of the three matches. Milan have drawn two and lost one.

Milan's overall condition seems weaker than last season. On the other hand, the Liverpool team is in a very good position. Liverpool's players are now very confident after winning three matches in the Premier League. Therefore, the probability of Liverpool winning against Milan is the highest. I would say Liverpool will make no mistake in this match.

Milan are far from their legendary days. After finishing second last season and being the biggest contenders for the title, Milan have been mediocre this season. They are playing a football that has nothing to do with last year. In my opinion, they don't lack in terms of squad, but they have an inefficiency caused by the management and the coach. The team doesn't have an ignition player.

Fonseca is a really bad choice for Milan. This club will not improve until Fonseca leaves Milan. Liverpool, on the other hand, started this season well and now they have the wind at their back. Arne Slot is carrying the team well after taking over from Klopp and Liverpool are playing well, although they are lacking in a few areas. Liverpool are definitely the favorites.

Atalanta was able to win Europa league does not mean that they are strong in UCL. Inter is more stronger and experienced than Atalanta and for that reason I don't think Atalanta will be able to pass the group stage because I don't see them having that strength.

There are big favorite clubs in UCL that will always prove themselves as big clubs by winning the underdogs and will go far in the league.

you are right Atalanta is a strong team on the Europa League platform. However, this team is not strong in the Champions League. If you want to do well on the Champions League platform, you need an experienced squad and an experienced coach. Atalanta's performance this season is not as good as expected. Atalanta have lost two out of three matches in Serie A. And in this situation they are not easy to do well in the Champions League.

Moreover, Atalanta will play against Arsenal in the first match of the Champions League. Atalanta team is weaker than Arsenal. Arsenal have a strong squad and are in good form this season. So the Atalanta team will probably face defeat in the first match as well. However, Atalanta have a chance to win against Shakhtar in the second match. But Shaktar will play this match at home. So the match will be very competitive.

Atalanta performance was also not very impressive in Serie A last season, but in the Europa League they were able to show their best side by beating the two strongest candidates to be champions (Liverpool and Leverkusen) before finally confirming themselves as champions. Atalanta may be able to spring a surprise in the UCL, but Arsenal will not be easy to beat in their current form.

All teams always try to win in every match, but differences in quality and other unexpected things can change the outcome of the match. The new format is a bit tiring because the number of matches will increase, the coach must be able to keep his players to always maintain their best performance so they can qualify for the next round.

Well I remember the last time they actually came to the champions league they really performed poorly resulting to their poor exit and I don't think they can make any positive effect for now because their game play hasn't improved that much and just like you said the teams in the champions league are no joke I mean these guys aren't actually playing and they are in it for the competition and I don't see Atlanta going that far.

Milan's main weakness is their defense. And I don't think they'll improve their defense any time soon. AC Milan have dropped points in all three of their matches due to poor defence. The team conceded 6 goals in 3 matches and managed to score 5 goals. Another important point is that Milan's opponents were not very strong in these three matches. Even so, Milan conceded 6 goals.

Milan's opponents in the Champions League, Liverpool, are very strong. And Liverpool have plenty of talented players in their midfield and forward lineup. The players are also in good form now. Liverpool will not find it difficult to break down Milan's weak defence. For these reasons I think Milan have no chance of winning against Liverpool. However, football is always unpredictable. Favorite teams are not always able to win. But I would say it is unlikely to happen in this match.
Considering transfer window is closed, they are not going to cover their defense at all, it's done and they are going to be forced to play with this one. It's clear that they are not going to do well in the UCL, it was known even before they started doing anything honesty, we knew that it wouldn't happen. Milan is not good even in Serie A, let alone be good at UCL, so they will probably either fail at group stages, or they will fail one step above when they face a real opponent, it's clear what they are going to do.

Liverpool on the other hand looks like a team that is doing insanely well with the new manager, it was a good decision to get Arne slot, he is one of those managers that actually does something for the team whenever he arrives to a new team. Look at their results so far, I am sure that if they keep this up, there is a chance that they could be a threat to win both premier league and UCL, doesn't mean they will, but they will compete for both of them.

I also initially thought the same as you, Milan will give their best performance this season with their new coach, but it turns out that Milan's performance was very disappointing at the beginning of this season and has not been able to get full points, while their rivals such as Inter and Juventus have won more points in the last 3 matches and are in first and second place in the standings, while Milan is in 14th place for the time being.

Milan will most likely have difficulty competing in the UCL because their first opponent is a top EPL club, while Liverpool, while in their best form, I think Milan will have difficulty facing Liverpool.
Against all odds we are having few teams at their worst in Italian league specially AS Roma and AC Milan are having terrible time even we are had some good attacking soccer from the AC Milan, but their defense is not perfect as they needed they are conceding two goals in every game mean things are surely looking for improvement.

No doubt if they will be play like this we will have no good time for them in UEFA Champions League, and they will be faced early exit which will be not good deal for them because they are having second-best record in this competition. They are going to face big teams specially Liverpool which is famous for their aggressive approach and their start in Premier League is impressive, so things can go against them badly if they are not going to have some good changes for improving their defense we have short time and challenges are big.

Atalanta started their season well. Atalanta started the season with a 4-0 win against Lecce in the first match. But Atalanta cannot maintain this consistency. Atalanta lost the next two matches against Torino and Inter Milan. Atalanta suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat against Inter Milan. In such a situation, it is a big challenge for Atalanta to resist Arsenal.

Arsenal team is very strong. This team is also performing well in the Premier League. However, Arsenal failed to win the last match against Brighton. Arsenal's overall gameplay was good though. Arsenal have a lot of talented players and there is no doubt that the squad is strong.

Although Atalanta are not in good form, it will not be easy for Arsenal to win this match. Because Atalanta has the ability to perform well. Arsenal will be making a big mistake if they consider Atalanta to be weak.
We have three games each for both teams in domestic leagues and Arsenal is having 2 wins 1 draw at home 4th spot in Premier League table and Atlanta is surely having terrible start after having good win at Lecce now they have 2 loses and their spot is also not good mean things are completely out of the favour for them in this season.

But, Champions League is completely different league and here we can expect surprising results and things can take good changes for any team so right now commenting about who is going to take lead is not easy even recently we are having good success for Serie A teams in UEFA events which is good for them.

Arsenal is also usually have problem in away games in Champions League as we watch them in last season so they also need to improve their quality specially they are missing quality finisher which give them good number of goals in big events.

Liverpool have good record on AC Milan in the past and currently, they’re still in a good position to win them even when they meet head to head. The champions league is a very competitive competition and a mediocre team does not always survive in the long run except those that have that resilience and will to fight back at all cost. AC Milan won’t be a problem to Liverpool even though they’re not a mediocre team, they can’t stand a chance against Arne Slot’s Liverpool.

Liverpool is a good team and looking at the clubs they’ll be playing against, I don’t think it’s be that easy for them. For clubs like Bologna, Lille, PSV, they may not find it hard to beat them. But other teams including AC Milan could give them a tough time even though they have the better squad to beat them, it won’t be that easy for them in my opinion.

Milan and Liverpool are two big European teams that have triumphed in the Champions League in the past, every time I watch their previous matches they always present very tight and balanced matches and in fact both teams often score a lot of goals in the matches that bring these two teams,   The match between Milan and Liverpool is a classic match that allows us to see a match full of high intensity later, but to be honest, for this season I don't dare to expect much from Milan, even though they got impressive results in friendly matches, but this is actually the opposite with the results they are getting in the league at the moment, Milan under the guidance of Fonsesca still haven't found their best performance and even facing with teams at the weak level as Torino and Lazio they only got 1 point in the league, so facing Liverpool who are currently on fire, of course it is very doubtful if they can win.
But let's see whether we will get a surprise from Milan later or whether the pressure for Fonsesca to resign will be even stronger from Milan fans.
Fonseca has just taken over the team. Maybe we should give him a little more chance. We expect very successful matches from Milan right away, yes they are a big team and they cannot stand losing. However, sometimes you need to be patient. It hasn't even been the fifth week of the league yet, changing the manager this week would be the biggest mistake for Milan. If they want to change the manager, I think they should wait until the mid-season transfer period. Because the new manager will not be able to add any reinforcements to the team or get the players he wants. I don't think much will change in this case. Also, they were really good in the friendly matches. They are bad for now but I think they will recover.
