Team Analysis
AC Milan faced little difficulty securing an away victory against Empoli with a convincing 3-0 win last Sunday afternoon. Adhering to their standards, they commenced the game strongly, with Loftus-Cheek finding the net in the 11th minute. The dominance continued as Giroud converted a penalty in the 31st minute to double their lead. The second half saw a similar style of play from AC Milan, although they allowed a more open approach from their opponent. Nevertheless, they remained superior, sealing the victory with Pulisic's goal in the 88th minute. This marked AC Milan's third win in the last four rounds, maintaining their position as the third team, secure in the Champions League position.

Atalanta, labeled as the underdog against AS Roma, adopted a somewhat more conservative approach. Despite this, they managed to take the lead first, securing a 1-1 draw last Sunday afternoon. Koopmeiners' eighth-minute goal gave them an early advantage, but AS Roma equalized in the 39th minute through a penalty converted by Dybala. Although AS Roma had slightly more ball possession and created chances in the second half, the result remained unchanged, leaving Atalanta content with the outcome.

Odds Analysis
Milan maintains a slight favoritism and possesses the capability to score, showcasing an improved offensive performance. However, being a Cup game, Atalanta is not adopting a passive approach. The visitors will undoubtedly have their chances, particularly considering Milan's lineup is far from their strongest starting XI, especially in defense.

Pick: Both to score
