Tomorrow, AC Milan will host Roma at the San Siro stadium. Both teams are coming off exits from the respective Coppa Italia competition. The Rossoneri lost at home 1-2 against Atalanta while The Giallorossi lost 1-0 against the hosts and city rivals, Lazio.
They are both vying to secure a Champions League qualification. Therefore, there is no more room for mistakes.
Roma, who are 8th with 29 points in the league table will arrive with seven absences in the squad to face 3rd-ranked Milan (with 39 points), as reported by Corriere dello Sport today.
Paulo Dybala is certainly the most significant absence, although less severe than feared. The Argentine joins Tammy Abraham, Renato Sanches, Chris Smalling, Evan N'Dicka, Sardar Azmoun, and Houssem Aouar on the list of absent players.
