AC Milan boss Stefano Pioli will field a brand new attack for this evening’s game against Cagliari at the Unipol Domus, according to a report.
This morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) has Milan reverting to a 4-3-3 after the 3-4-3 used against Hellas Verona, with Marco Sportiello in goal and a back four of Alessandro Florenzi, Malick Thiaw, Fikayo Tomori and Theo Hernandez.
The midfield three should see Yacine Adli replace the injured Rade Krunic as the deeper-lying player, with the Frenchman flanked by Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Tijjani Reijnders.
In attack, Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leao should rest, thus meaning a trio of Christian Pulisic, Noah Okafor and Samuel Chukwueze from left to right.
The unavailable players are Krunic, Ismael Bennacer, Pierre Kalulu and Mattia Caldara.
Probable Milan XI (4-3-3): Sportiello; Florenzi, Thiaw, Tomori, Theo; Loftus-Cheek, Adli, Reijnders; Pulisic, Okafor, Chukwueze.
Probable Cagliari XI (4-4-2) Radunovic; Zappa, Wieteska, Dossena, Obert; Nandez, Makoumbou, Sulemana, Augello; Petagna, Luvumbo.
