Xabi Alonso has already tasted domestic defeat in the first month of Bundesliga action, something that didn't happen at all last season, as Bayer Leverkusen isn't sneaking up on anybody this time around. The fixture list into Tuesday also troubles, as this is a rather short turnaround for Alonso's troops after the big Bundesliga battle with Bayern Munich that ended 1-1 on Saturday. They catch as ascendant Milan that has been in good form in recent weeks save that 3-1 loss to Liverpool on Matchday One two weeks ago. Among recent top efforts for Paolo Fonseca's troops are a 2-1 win in the Milan Derby vs. Inter and last Friday's 3-0 Serie A romp past Lecce. Goals in five straight matches by Christian Pulisic suggest the Rossoneri have a real target man in their midst, and while we would probably opt first for the draw price if available, Milan on the spread is another desirable available option.
