Just over 24 hours remain until the big night of the Derby della Madonnina. Tomorrow evening at 20:45, Milan and Inter will face each other at San Siro in the 28th round of the Serie A Enilive championship. For the Rossoneri, it is a chance to secure crucial points in the race for a Champions League spot, as the battle grows tighter and each fixture carries more weight.
Max Allegri can smile after the return of at least Davide Bartesaghi, though he is set to start on the bench. Based on the tests on the eve of the match and in recent days, the left flank should go to Pervis Estupiñán, who has a major chance to redeem himself after a difficult season. On the opposite side, Saelemaekers is fully confirmed, as pointed out via Milan News.
The defensive trio from the last two matches should appear again, since Matteo Gabbia is unavailable. In front of Mike Maignan, the back line will consist of Tomori, De Winter, and Pavlovic.
In midfield, neither Modric nor Rabiot can be replaced. Fofana should join them, with an edge over Ricci and Jashari. Up front, the Pulisic–Leão partnership will feature once again, though it has yet to fully flourish in this tactical setup.
Probable Milan lineup (3-5-2):
Maignan; Tomori, De Winter, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Estupinan; Pulisic, Leao.
