The AC Milan team of Stefano Pioli will lock horns with Atalanta on March 4th, Saturday. While the Rossoneri's hopes of catching up to league leaders Napoli have faded, the new objective for the red and black faithful is to collect as many points as possible in the league in order to ensure a top four finish.
Il Diavolo team, who will face La Viola away from the familiar comforts of the San Siro, will have to take to the pitch without the presence of Mike Maignan, Davide Calabria and possibly also Ismael Bennacer who is yet to recover from his latest injury.
As pointed out by the Italy-based outlet Milan Press this morning, Pioli and his boys will have to be very cautious as several players are risking disqualification if they do receive a yellow card against Atalanta. The ones in question are: Rafael Leao, Rade Krunic, Simon Kjaer, Ante Rebic and Olivier Giroud as well as Davide Calabria who is currently out due to injury.
