After the International break, Serie A resumes this weekend and as we head to the last part of the season, each team’s objective is getting clearer. On this saturday, Milan will face Bari in what could be a tricky away game for matchday 14, as Milan could be focusing on the clash against Juventus next week and the hosts are desperate fighting to avoid relegation, although the rossonere have never lost a game to the barese.
The probable line-ups
There is no doubt that Maurizio Ganz will send a strong starting eleven to the Campo Comunale Antonucci in his characteristic 3-5-2 formation. However, the only, and big, interrogation is whether Valentina Giacinti, after picking up an injury in the National team’s game against Israel, will be fit enough to take her place as a starter, or even play the match at all, although, as she said herself to the Rai Sports microphones, the injury did not seem to be serious.
AC MILAN (3-5-2): Korenciova; Fusetti, Agard, Spinelli; Bergamaschi, Grimshaw, Jane, Vero, Tucceri-Cimini; Giacinti, Dowie.
PINK BARI (3-5-2): Myllyoja; Marrone, Quazzico, Lea; Helmvall, Silvioni, Cramer, Strisciuglio, Capitanelli; Zecca, Sule.
Key player
When both fields mirror their formation, someone ought make a difference individually and, for AC Milan, this someone could be defender Giorgia Spinelli, who has been a key element of suprise up front for the rossonere lately.
Keep an eye on
After making her debut for Milan against Sassulo in the Coppa Italia game and putting on a showcase with great speed and accurate passes, Yui Hasegawa might come during the game to get some more playing minutes and who knows what she can pull off this time.
Where and When
The game will take place on this Saturday, February 27 and the kick-off time is set to 12:30 pm CET at the Antonio Antonucci Stadium. The fans in Italy will be able to watch it in the TIMVISION app and Milan TV, while the AC Milan’s Official app will broadcast it worldwide.
