According to what was reported by Peppe Di Stefano on Sky Sport 24 Stefano Pioli will try to present the best possible lineup taking into considerations the players' physical conditions.
Hakan Calhanoglu, recovered from Covid-19 for a week now, trained regularly at Milanello with his teammates but Stefano Pioli, as also anticipated in the conference by the coach himself, found that the condition of the Turkish is not yet at optimal levels.
That is why behind Zlatan Ibrahimovic, irreplaceable starter at the center of the Rossoneri attack, there will be Rafael Leao.
The Portuguese, employed in this unprecedented position against Bologna, had impressed well and had offered a performance that was considered very positive. On the sides there will be the usual Ante Rebic on the left and Alexis Saelemaekers on the right.
News also in midfield, with Ismael Bennacer in doubt due to an onset of bronchitis, while Sandro Tonali has recovered from a calf problem that he has been carrying around for a while now. Next to Franck Kessie there will therefore be the former Torino midfielder Soualiho Meite.
