On Sunday, January 26, at 12:30 PM, the 'Giuseppe Meazza' stadium in San Siro, Milan, will host the match between Sérgio Conceição's Milan and Fabio Pecchia's Parma, valid for the 22nd round of the 2024/2025 Serie A. The Rossoneri have the opportunity to find consistency in the league after their Champions League victory against Girona.
As for Parma, Pecchia is expected to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation. Suzuki will be in goal. A back four consisting of Delprato, Vogliacco, Valenti, and Valeri. A two-man midfield with Keita and Sohm. Behind the lone striker Bonny, the trio of Man, Hernani, and Mihaila will provide support. Parma currently sits in sixteenth place, just one point above the relegation zone. Pecchia's team also desperately needs points.
Good news for Milan and Conceição comes from Samuel Chukwueze. The Nigerian forward, who left the match against Roma due to a muscle injury and has missed several games, has returned to group training.
The former Villarreal winger's recovery is joined by that of Noah Okafor in attack. The Swiss forward is available again after his failed move to Leipzig. Christian Pulisic, who played a few minutes against Girona, is also recovered and is expected to start. Following his Champions League suspension, Tomori should return to the starting line-up. On the right, Emerson Royal will be absent due to a serious calf injury. Calabria is likely to play, though he is not in top condition. In midfield, the trio of Bennacer, Fofana, and Reijnders is expected.
The Frenchman may also rest in view of the Champions League and the derby. Fofana is one yellow card away from suspension and would miss the match against Inter with another booking. In attack, Pulisic, Morata, and Leao will start. Here are the probable line-ups for Milan-Parma.
