Sandro Tonali to Commit 1 or More Fouls
Sandro Tonali returns to his former club on Tuesday, just months after having left for Newcastle. Tonali has committed 1.3 fouls per game in the Premier League this season which is enough to have confidence of another foul here.
As well as his record this year there’s also the fact that he’s playing against Milan, which you’d have to imagine is a game he absolutely won’t want to lose. He’s going to be in a midfield battle against some players he played with, and some he didn’t, and won’t want to lose a battle in front of the crowd that used to adore him.
Bruno Guimaraes to be Shown a Card
Bruno Guimaraes will be key to Newcastle’s hopes in this game. He’s one of the first names on the team sheet for Eddie Howe and they’ll need his range of passing, not to mention his defensive strength against a Milan team who could be dangerous, despite getting pumped 5-1 at the weekend.
So far this season Guimaraes has committed an astonishing 2.2 fouls per game in the Premier League and found himself in the ref’s book on three occasions. Given the quality on display for Milan he’s going to have a tough game and I love the chances of seeing him get a card.
Kieran Trippier to Commit 1 or More Fouls in the First Half
This is a bit of a speculative one but we’re going to be backing Kieran Trippier to commit a foul in the first half. So far through five Premier League games he’s only committed five fouls, an average of one per game. However, this is different. He’s going to be matched up on the right side with Rafael Leao.
The Portuguese forward is quick and direct and has been fouled on average 2.8 times per game in Serie A this season. That’s double the number of Christian Pulisic who will be operating on the other flank. Leao is the dangerman for Milan and Trippier will be well aware of that and will bring him down if needed.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek to Commit 1 or More Fouls
Former Chelsea man Ruben Loftus-Cheek is facing familiar opposition on Tuesday and he’s a great candidate to commit a foul. He’s currently been averaging 1.3 fouls committed per game in Serie A and faces a really tough night on Tuesday.
He’ll be on the right hand side of Milan’s midfield three, which should mean it’ll be his responsibly to help Davide Calabria out against Anthony Gordon. Gordon struggled at times for Newcastle last season but he’s arguably been their best player through the opening months of the season. He’s been fouled 2.6 times per game and Loftus-Cheek will need to help shut him down, as well as dealing with his midfield battle against Tonali and Guimaraes too.
Both Teams to Score
Newcastle haven’t had the best start to their Premier League campaign but they’ve still scored eight goals with Callum Wilson and Alexander Isak amongst the goals. We’ll probably see Isak get the nod here, but with that quality up front they should be able to score against a Milan team who conceded five to city rivals Inter on Saturday.
You’d also have to think that Milan will be confident of scoring too. They’ve bagged in every game so far this season and the Newcastle defence has been shakier than it was last year, with their only clean sheet this campaign coming against Brentford who are obviously missing Ivan Toney. The front three of Leao, Pulisic and Olivier Giroud will be confident of creating chances.
