Milan vs PSV Eindhoven

Filed in archive Champions League by on May 04, 2005

Milan goes into the second leg of the semi final against PSV Eindhoven with a 2-0 lead tonight. With Milan striker Andriy Shevchenko has returned to form at just the right time, it will be a tough battle for PSV to overcome the tie.

Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has a full squad to choose from including central defender Alessandro Nesta who is back after the suspension that saw him miss the first leg. Nesta's absence was noticeable as Milan's defence struggled to cope with the pace of PSV's darting attacks and the Italian will likely partner Jaap Stam in central defence. That would mean Paolo Maldini moving to left-back at the expense of Georgian Kakha Kaladze. The other selection choice facing Ancelotti is whether to stick with two forwards or revert to a five-man midfield featuring Rui Costa. Argentine striker Hernan Crespo has looked below par in recent weeks, although Tomasson would be a valid option if Ancelotti wants to play with two strikers.

PSV's American international winger DaMarcus Beasley is out with a shin injury picked up in Friday's 2-2 draw against Twente Enschede after a clash with Swede Daniel Majstorovic. Fullback Andre Ooijer is suspended after a first-leg booking while central defender Wilfred Bouma, who came off at halftime in Milan with a back injury, is doubtful along with strikers Robert and Jefferson Farfan who have anklelinks problems.

It is going to be another great match tonight! My guess is on Milan to win 1-0.
