AC Milan will take on Hellas Verona away from home tomorrow and with the break coming up, the Rossoneri will be looking to clinch another three points. Mike Maignan is the main doubt, having left the mid-week clash with an injury.
Milan advanced to the quarters of the Europa League after beating Slavia Praha 7-3 on aggregate. However, it was not all good news as Maignan was forced to end the game early with an injury. It’s nothing serious, but he’s still a doubt for tomorrow.
According to MilanNews, Maignan will most likely be able to start but the captain Davide Calabria, who also sustained a minor injury, should be on the bench. Alessandro Florenzi is back from suspension and will play instead, while Marco Sportiello will be ready in case the Frenchman cannot make it.
After starting both Yacine Adli and Yunus Musah against Slavia Praha, Pioli is expected to revert to the usual midfield of Ismael Bennacer and Tijjani Reijnders. Furthermore, Olivier Giroud could get some rest with Luka Jovic starting up front instead, hoping to find the back of the net after three games without a goal.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Florenzi, Thiaw, Tomori, Hernandez; Bennacer, Reijnders; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Jovic.
