Efforts AC Milan Risen From Downturn.

Thursday ( 7/11 ) pm dawn later , a party presented labeled big match in Group H of the Champions League between two teams with a strong tradition in this competition , namely Barcelona and AC Milan . Fighting between the holder of the title four times seven degree holders face this has often happened in the past few seasons , with Barcelona emerged as the more dominant force .

In their last three home games to face AC Milan , Barcelona was able to record at least two goals . Last season in the same place , Barcelona beat Milan 4-0 , reversing the previous advantages Milan won 2-0 at San Siro in the Champions League round of 16 .
Views of achievement in their respective domestic competitions , Barcelona is also far more convincing than AC Milan . They lead the league standings with 34 points from possible 36 . In those 12 games , they also have won the first El Classico volumes with real dominance . On the other hand , AC Milan just carve one of their worst start in history . The last three games they even went through without a single victory , including a negative note conceded six times . One more thing that deserves attention , this season yet though AC Milan won both away games in Serie A and the Champions League .
So when the game will take place at the Camp Nou , Barcelona on paper favored to get the three points and pave their way towards the knockout as group winners . Barcelona has now carved out a seven-point is likely to ensure escape if the game would be able to beat Milan , hoping the match Ajax Amsterdam face Glasgow Celtic ended in a draw .
Coach Gerardo Martino in camp games Barca have different characteristics than its two predecessors which carries tiki - taka , namely Pep Guardiola and Tito Vilanova . Although still emerged as the team with the highest ball possession in La Liga , Martino was able to make Barcelona play in different ways such as waiting for an opponent to attack and counterattack . Match against Rayo Vallecano some time ago won Barca the advantage on the opposing team's ball possession , something that almost never happened since Pep Guardiola era .
Barcelona is worth trying another way to play . Last season , they were badly beaten Bayern Munich 7-0 on aggregate in the semi -finals , a number that indicates how Bayern beat Barca have found a way to do the pressing tight throughout the game .
Martino stick with a 4-3-3 formation . If the trio of midfielder Sergio Busquets , Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta barely shifted , then the composition of the three players who appeared from the beginning is often rotated . Martino can choose a center forward Cesc Fabregas if he wants to put Lionel Messi on the right side of the attack . This tactic was effective last season when they managed to exploit the movement through the Milan defense mercurial Messi on the right side . If Messi is chosen to be the central striker , Martino likely to lose Alexis Sanchez on the right side , with Pedro who is ready to play in the second half .
In the stronghold of Milan , coach Max Allegri whose position is increasingly threatened course will treat this game like a final fight . Positive result against a team as strong as Barcelona is not only able to save his , but can evoke moral ailing teams competed . Convening the closed training camp is also being sought to return the focus to the field players , as well as a comprehensive evaluation of the results that they have suffered badly .
In contrast to their performance in the domestic competition , Milan's performance in the Champions League is actually not bad . They were able to grab five points from a possible nine , including hold Barca 1-1 at San Siro . With this achievement , AC Milan need to at least draw against Barca in Camp Nou and then struggled to get at least four points from two games against Ajax and Celtic . If they lose while Celtic can beat Ajax , then their position will be displaced by the Scottish champions and their chances to qualify for the round of 16 will shrink .
Allegri believed would use the 4-3-3 pattern similar to that developed Barca . Trio Ricardo Kaka , Valter Birsa and Mario Balotelli will lead the Milan attack . They will be supported three midfielders who will most likely be filled Riccardo Montolivo , Sulley Muntari and Nigel De Jong . While the back line will be filled Ignazio Abate at right side with Cristian Zapata and Philippe Mexes in central defense . One more possibility of Kevin Constant filled if Mattia De Sciglio not otherwise fit . For the goalkeeper position , despite reportedly recovering Cristian Abbiati , Marco Amelia but more likely to be the main choice .
Despite all the statistics and the recent performance to favor Barcelona , but Milan great motivation in this fight can reverse any predictions . Besides the fact that Milan is a team with a strong tradition in the Champions League , they are also able to exploit the weaknesses of the Barca back line still waiting for healing Gerard Pique and Adriano. The latest news says both players are still training separately with other players . Kaka the ingenuity and acumen Balotelli is expected to appear when the game is tough going . If you are able to steal a goal and stick with discipline as they demonstrate at San Siro , AC Milan it can at least hope to bring home a point .
