Milan are drawn familiars opponent in the Champions League in Group B, including Liverpool, but the Rossoneri prepare for their first ever trip to Anfield in the competition.
The Rossoneri face a tough group on their return to the Champions League after eight, but the opponents are somewhat the same as before, as the Diavolo prepare to face Liverpool yet again.
The two Finals at the start of the millennium are historic for both sides, as Liverpool bounced back to win a thriller in Istanbul.
Liverpool turned around the match from being down 0-3 at half-time to equalise and win on penalties in 2004-05.
But Milan hope for a more similar experience to the one two years later in Athens, when the Diavolo got revenge with a 2-1 win in the Final over the Reds.
However, the Diavolo prepares for their first ever trip to Anfield in the Champions League.
Milan’s last game was actually against Atletico Madrid, and the La Liga winners are back to make their life hard also on their return.
The Rossoneri were humiliated 4-1 by Atletico in their last Champions League game, but at least they will not have to return to the Vicente Calderon, as the Rojiblancos have changed to Wanda Metropolitano.
Milan and Porto have met nine times in the European Cup and the Rossoneri have the upper hand in their previous group stage meetings with three wins, two draws and only one defeat against the Portuguese giants.
