Feyenoord will host AC Milan at De Kuip on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, at 20:45 PM in the Champions League knockout phase.
Both teams enter this match with different forms, making this an exciting betting opportunity.
Feyenoord’s Form and Performance
Feyenoord have made history by reaching the knockout rounds for the first time since 1985. They secured qualification after a 19th-place finish in the inaugural Champions League league phase.
Their campaign was full of drama, including a 3-0 shock victory over Bayern Munich and a 3-3 draw against Manchester City. However, a 6-1 defeat to Lille exposed their defensive vulnerabilities.
The Dutch side have been inconsistent, winning only two of their last six European games. They lost to Bayer Leverkusen and Red Bull Salzburg, raising concerns about their home strength.
Domestically, Feyenoord have struggled. They lost Der Klassieker to Ajax and were eliminated from the KNVB Beker by PSV Eindhoven. A 3-0 win over Sparta Rotterdam ended a frustrating run, but defensive issues remain.
AC Milan’s Strengths and Weaknesses
AC Milan return to the Champions League knockout stage for just the second time in 11 seasons. They finished ahead of Feyenoord in the league phase by two points and six places.
Milan showed promise by beating Real Madrid but lost to Dinamo Zagreb on the final matchday, missing out on an automatic last-16 spot.
Under coach Sergio Conceicao, Milan have been inconsistent. They won the Supercoppa Italiana, but their away record in knockout stages is poor. They have failed to win any of their last 11 knockout away matches, scoring just three goals in their last 10.
Milan are seventh in Serie A, far from their usual title-challenging form. However, a 2-0 victory over Empoli and a 3-1 Coppa Italia win over Roma suggest they are improving.
