AC Milan take on Club Brugge on Tuesday night, and the Rossoneri must leave the match with three points if they are to progress in the Champions League this season.
With two defeats already on the board, Milan find themselves in a somewhat perilous situation, and in the old format, they could probably forget about qualifying for the knockout phase of the competition. However, they can still be hopeful of progression due to the new league format.
It does, however, mean they will have to be near-perfect for the rest of the league phase, and this is why Paulo Fonseca will probably look to the stars for assistance.
As Gazzetta dello Sport (via Milan News) writes, the Portuguese head coach should bring Rafael Leao and Theo Hernandez into the starting eleven after both were absent against Udinese – albeit for different reasons.
Samuel Chukwueze has earned a place in the squad, so he should once again play on the right, meaning Christian Pulisic will start in the middle, and Alvaro Morata will lead the line.
In midfield, there shall be no changes, but Fonseca may offer Matteo Gabbia a chance to rest, so Malick Thiaw, Strahinja Pavlovic and Fikayo Tomori will be competing for a spot.
