Venezia - Milan, 34th matchday of the 2024-25 Serie A championship, scheduled for Sunday, April 27 at 12:30 PM CET. The Rossoneri arrive after the huge win in the Coppa Italia derby against Inter.
It is a victory that secured the team a place in the final of the competition against Bologna. It won’t be an easy match considering that Milan lost in the league against Italiano’s team, currently among the most in-form sides in the league.
In Serie A, Milan will have to ‘train’ in view of the Coppa Italia: win to keep on winning. The standings remain very complicated: Milan is in ninth place, 5 points behind Fiorentina in eighth, while Venezia is fully in the relegation battle. Here are the probable lineups for Venezia-Milan from Gazzetta.it.
As reported by the Italian newspaper, Di Francesco gets Fila back from suspension while Yeboah should be ahead of Oristanio. Venezia should line up in a 3-5-2 with Radu in goal. Back three formed by Schingtienne, Idzes, Candè. Five-man midfield divided as follows: Zerbin, Kike Perez, Nicolussi Caviglia, Busio, Ellertsson. Up front, the pair formed by Gytkjaer and Yeboah.
As for Milan, Sergio Conceicao should continue with the 3-4-3. These are the possible doubts two days before the match: Tomori or Walker and Jovic or Abraham. Gabbia’s condition is to be evaluated, as he came off during the derby due to a neck issue. If he doesn’t make it, Thiaw is ready. According to the source, and relayed via Pianeta Milan, some rotation after the Coppa Italia clash against Inter cannot be ruled out. At the moment, the probable Rossoneri lineup is the same as in the derby with only one change: Thiaw in place of Gabbia. In goal there could be Mike Maignan, while the back three should consist of Fikayo Tomori, Strahinja Pavlovic, and Malick Thiaw.
In midfield, the tandem formed by Tijjani Reijnders and Youssouf Fofana, flanked by Alex Jimenez and Theo Hernandez. In attack, finally, there could be Luka Jovic, supported by Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao. Here are the probable lineups for Venezia-Milan.
Venezia-Milan, probable lineups:
Venezia (3-5-2): Radu; Schingtienne, Idzes, Candè; Zerbin, Kike Perez, Nicolussi Caviglia, Busio, Ellertsson; Gytkjaer, Yeboah. Coach: Di Francesco.
Milan (3-4-3): Maignan; Tomori, Thiaw, Pavlovic; Jimenez, Fofana, Reijnders, Theo Hernandez; Pulisic, Jovic, Leao. Coach: Conceicao.
