AC Milan face a tough test against a rampant Dinamo Zagreb side at San Siro tonight, and Stefano Pioli is expected to field a strong line-up accordingly.
According to what is being reported by this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, Pioli should field what has become the ‘first choice’ defence in Davide Calabria, Pierre Kalulu, Fikayo Tomori and Theo Hernandez in front of Mike Maignan.
Ismael Bennacer and Sandro Tonali are tipped to be in the double pivot with Brahim Diaz in the central attacking midfielder role.
In attack, Alexis Saelemaekers should be preferred over Junior Messias on the right with Rafael Leao on the opposite wing given he will get a rest against Napoli on Sunday due to being suspended, and Olivier Giroud will lead the line again.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Bennacer, Tonali; Saelemaekers, Diaz, Leao; Giroud.
Probable Dinamo Zagreb XI (3-5-2): Livakovic; Ristovski, Sutalo, Peric; Moharammi, Ivanusec, Misic, Ademi, Ljubicic; Petkovic, Orsic.
