GdS: Milan vs. Juventus probable XIs – Ibrahimovic to start as Pioli wants consistency

By Isak Möller -

Following the impressive 3-0 win away at Lazio, AC Milan are now gearing up to take on Juventus at the San Siro. Having won three out of four games since the resumption, the Rossoneri will look to add another three points. 

According to today’s edition of Gazzetta Dello Sport (via SempreMilan.com), Stefano Pioli is leaning towards confirming the starting eleven he used against Lazio. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was only used 45 minutes and thus has the energy in his legs.

Meanwhile, Hakan Calhanoglu has recovered from the blow he sustained to his calf last time out, ready to play from start once again. Although he did well off the bench, Ante Rebic might have to step back once again in favour of the Swede.

Juventus will be without Matthijs De Ligt and Paulo Dybala, who were booked against Torino and subsequently suspended. Of course, this is a big boost for the Rossoneri as the Argentine striker has always done well against them.

Milan (4-2-3-1): Donnarumma; Conti, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Theo Hernandez; Bennacer, Kessie; Saelemaekers, Bonaventura, Calhanoglu; Ibrahimovic.

Juventus (4-3-3): Szczesny; Cuadrado, Rugani, Bonucci, Danilo; Bentancur, Pjanic, Rabiot; Bernardeschi, Higuain, Cristiano Ronaldo.
