AC Milan will face PSG in a very important clash at San Siro this evening, in need of a win after two draws and one defeat so far. Stefano Pioli will make quite a few changes to the XI, including benching Rade Krunic, a report claims.
The Rossoneri more or less need to clinch a win tonight to keep their hopes of reaching the Round of 16 alive. A draw or even a defeat could be enough in the end, but the feeling is that they need the confidence boost ahead of the final two rounds.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), Pioli is expected to bench Rade Krunic in favour of Yunus Musah. This means that Tijjani Reijnders will play in the No.6 role instead, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek completing the midfield three on the right.
The likes of Theo Hernandez and Christian Pulisic, just like Loftus-Cheek, have also recovered and will be back in the starting eleven tonight. These returns are very important for Pioli, who had to field a 4-4-2 last time out due to the injury struggles.
Probable Milan XI (4-3-3): Maignan; Calabria, Thiaw, Tomori, T. Hernandez; Loftus-Cheek, Reijnders, Musah; Pulisic, Giroud, Leao.
Probable PSG XI (4-2-4): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Skriniar, Marquinhos, L. Hernandez; Zaire-Emery, Ugarte; Dembele, Kolo Muani, Mbappe, Vitinha.
