Against Atalanta, it will surely be a very tough game as Pioli's AC Milan will have to get the three points in order to stay at the top of the table (they can afford to make a draw, and then, they will have to beat Sassuolo away from home in the last Serie A clash to win the Scudetto).
After the victory against Hellas Verona, it seems that coach Pioli would be heading towards confirming the same latest lineup that won him that away fixture.
Therefore, Rade Krunic could be set to start at the San Siro against Atalanta behind Olivier Giroud while Alexis Saelemaekers is on the right flank.
The decision is not made yet. The Bosnian midfielder has good chances and Ismael Bennacer is also working hard to earn a spot in the lineup. Should the coach choose to deploy the Algerian, then Franck Kessié will advance and play the attacking midfielder position (instead of Krunic).
But for now, this is the likely formation that should be used by the AC Milan tactician tomorrow:
4-2-3-1: Maignan - Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Theo - Tonali, Kessie - Saelemaekers, Krunic, Leao - Giroud
