AC Milan’s left flank is known for causing problems for opponents, but the data from the Champions League group stages suggests they are among the most dangerous in Europe.

Milan secured their progression to the last 16 of the Champions League with a 4-0 win over Red Bull Salzburg at San Siro on Wednesday night, marking the first time that the Rossoneri have reached the knockout stages of the competition since the 2013-14 season, with the squad having learned from their mistakes last season and having demonstrated their growth.
