AC Milan and Inter will face each other in the Derby della Madonninan this evening, with both teams hoping to assert themselves after an average start. Stefano Pioli will make some changes to his starting XI.
Compared to the game against Sassuolo, the Rossoneri will field quite a different XI seeing as they rotated a lot for that game. For instance, Davide Calabria and Pierre Kalulu will be back from start at the back.
The big battle throughout the week has been the right wing. It’s a dilemma for Pioli as whoever comes on from the bench seems to do well, but the one starting can never make a proper impact. Junior Messias will most likely get the nod, though.
Charles De Ketelaere will get the chance from start and as you would expect, Olivier Giroud (the Inter killer) will start up front. Hopefully, the two can find each other on the pitch and link up well this evening.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Theo; Bennacer, Tonali; Messias, De Ketelaere, Leao; Giroud.
Probable Inter XI (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Darmian; Martinez, Dzeko.
