Unfortunately, no team has not beaten Milan once Milan has qualified during the group stage, including Lens.

In fairness we should have won by about 3 goals in Copenhagen. They created nothing in open play (seriously) and we created about 6 clear cut chances. If we could defend set pieces and had Larsson we would have won that match 3-0.

We usually don't play badly away from home. Juve, Bayern, Milan, Man Utd, Barca, Lyon - 6 of Europe's best and none of those teams beat us comfortably (Barca didn't beat us). In fact, only Man Utd probably deserved to beat us and they got a penalty that shouldn't have been. We've been very unlucky.

On paper we look terrible away from home but we're not that bad most of the time.

All 11 players from Milan's starting line up are better than the Celtic 11.
But in a CL knock out match, where Celtic hasn't been not even once, i'm sure the Scotish side will give 101%. They will run and fight even more than Milan players, and that way they will match them and equal the quality gap and experience gap between them.

But this is where high class comes to make the difference. No matter the desire or fighting spirit, Celtic doesn't has a Kaka in their squad, and players like Kaka, Zidane and Sheva win this kind of matches.
I predict Celtic players to give the matches of their lifes and to make it damn hard for Milan to win a match. But i also predict Kaka to shine up at certain moment of those 180 minutes and take Milan to the 1/4 finals.
Lets wait and see if i'm right

I think we should not beat Celtic 2-0 or 3-0 , we should hammer them 7-0 becoz they talk alot being one of the most passsionate clubs of Europe and it simply makes me furious

The Gers fans are backing us, so that would be a bonus

CELTIC is the w..k.n..es team that arrive in 1/8
so is true that 'LUCK STAY CLOSE TO THE STRONGER'

I believe ac milan..we are the champions..
ac milan will win against celtic..
I guess match score..

ac milan-2
celtic -0

celtic-2
ac milan-2

forza milan..forza milan..forza milan..

I was at the Ceptic-Killie game yesterday and Ceptic were rank rotten!And the fans were no better-it had all the atmpsphere of a morgue!Id like to think that Gilas finishing will be better than that of Rhian Dodds and Danny Invincible!If they had trhere shooting boots on we wud have been 3 up at half time!
I will be back again in February and fully expect my team to win on this occassion.
I do hope they sort out the seating in the away section at the San Giro as there are many missing seats and of course there is still the famous "restricted view" from many.
Forza Milan
Forza killie

We should beat Celtic pretty comfortably, they're average @ best. We would have to play very badly not to win.

My predictions:

Celtic 1-1 Milan, Milan 2-1 Celtic

Celtic will give everything they have, and should not be underestimated. But we have the players to get us through to the quarter finals. I think our most important players will be Seedorf and Gattuso. I expect these games to be very physical, so everything depends on whether these two players will be able to win the ball for us in midfield, to provide Pirlo and Kaká with possession, not to mention space to move in.

And I wouldn't be surprised to see Pippo scoring the decisive goal at the San Siro

^ I fancy it being, Celtic 0-1 Milan, Milan 3-1 Celtic.

We don't have Kaka but we have Naka! I believe he's one of the most intelligient players in the world. His passing is superb too. Fantastic technically. Great skill when needed. The only attributes he lacks is strength and things like aggression but the rest of his game us up there with the best in the world. I honestly can't believe we have a player as good as him. He's up there will Larsson in terms of ability, although completely different players.

He set up our 2 goals again this week. He has actually set up 4 and scored 1 of our last 5 goals.

killiegradge - The atmosphere is always bad at Celtic park for league games. Especially at 3 O'Clock on a Tuesday afternoon. If Kilmarnock were playing St.Mirren on Tuesday afternoon would the atmosphere have been excellent? No chance.
