Bournemouth beat AC Milan three to zero in Europe and now head to Old Trafford.

Written by the BettingEdgeHub desk, 23 October 2026

Bournemouth secured a famous three to zero victory over AC Milan in the Europa League. Justin Kluivert opened the scoring from the penalty spot early in the match. Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan received a red card for shoving Tyler Adams. Marcus Tavernier scored the second penalty past substitute goalkeeper Lorenzo Torriani.

European dominance continues

Marco Rose oversaw a dominant display as substitute Amine Adli added a brilliant free kick late in the game. The result keeps Bournemouth with a perfect record in the European competition. They became the first English side to win their opening three major European matches since Sunderland in nineteen seventy three.

Old Trafford test awaits

Attention now shifts back to the domestic league and an upcoming fixture against Manchester United. Bournemouth recently claimed their first league win of the season against Sunderland. They want to secure consecutive league victories for the first time since May.

Strong away record

Bournemouth enjoy a strong recent record when visiting Old Trafford. They are unbeaten in their last three league visits to Manchester United with two wins and one draw. Ryan Christie hopes the massive European win provides momentum to take into the weekend match.

What it means for a bet

Backing Bournemouth to score multiple goals at Old Trafford looks wise given their brilliant historical record at the venue.
