Milan opened the season with a very important victory against a very unpleasant opponent, Sampdoria. As in the previous match, they will be missing the help of Ibrahimovic and Kessie, but in the first match of the season we could see that Milan is dangerous without them. In the absence of Ibrahimovic, they are free to rely on a proven striker, Giroud. What is also important to note is the very safe defense, which was at a very high level in the match against Sampdoria. Unlike a very safe game from the first round of Milan, at the opening of the season, Cagliari showed certain weaknesses in defense. The line-up with three players in defense, led by the experienced but rather slow Godin, did not turn out very well. The only thing worth mentioning from that Cagliari game was Joao Pedro who was the double scorer. It is certain that in this match, the experienced defense of Milan will not allow him so much space and that Cagliari will have to work hard to score a goal. According to the announcements coming from the management of Milan, this season they have the highest possible goals and two victories at the opening of the season would significantly raise their morale before the continuation of a very difficult season.

My prediction : Milan to win (-1.5 Asian handicap)

米兰以一场对桑普多利亚的重要胜利开启了新赛季。和上一场比赛一样，他们将失去伊布拉希莫维奇和凯西的帮助，但在本赛季的第一场比赛中，我们可以看到没有他们的米兰是危险的。在伊布拉希莫维奇缺阵的情况下，他们可以依靠久经考验的前锋吉鲁。同样需要注意的是非常安全的防守，这在对桑普多利亚的比赛中是非常高水平的。不像米兰在第一轮比赛中表现得很安全，在赛季初，卡利亚里在防守上表现出了一定的弱点。这支由三名防守队员组成的阵容，由经验丰富但相当缓慢的戈丁领衔，结果并不理想。在对卡利亚里的比赛中，唯一值得一提的是佩德罗，他攻入了两球。可以肯定的是，在这场比赛中，米兰经验丰富的防守不会给他太多的空间，卡利亚里必须努力进球。根据米兰管理层的声明，本赛季他们可能会有最高的进球，赛季初的两场胜利将极大地提升他们的士气，而不是继续一个非常艰难的赛季。

看好米兰至少赢两球。
