Tonight the Europa League league phase begins, and our attention goes to San Siro and the Lotto Park. Milan host a Benfica side that has won its last seven in all competitions, and Anderlecht welcome Lyon to Brussels.

Tuesday Results

One from one on Tuesday. Millwall took a point from the Riverside in a 2-2 draw and the full-goal start returned a profit in full. Tairyk Arconte and Lyndon Dykes had Millwall two up inside 36 minutes before Amario Cozier-Duberry and Will Lankshear brought Middlesbrough level either side of the hour.

AC Milan v Benfica (8pm UK)

Milan are 2.02 at San Siro, with the draw at 3.51 and Benfica out at 2.90. Full-time expected goals come in at 0.762 for Milan against 1.890 for Benfica, a 2.652 combined total, and only 1.021 of that lands before the break. Milan have taken seven points from their first three in Serie A and are yet to lose this season, while Benfica have scored at least three goals in eight of their last eleven.
