MN: Pioli not expected to stray from winning formula vs. Bologna

By Ben Dixon -

AC Milan’s recent form in Serie A means that Stefano Pioli should have little to decide when naming his starting eleven for this weekend’s fixture against Bologna. 

As MilanNews writes given the results against Roma and Udinese, there is no need to change things. Especially because there have been no injuries in this time.

As a result, Maignan will start in goal, Calabria will captain the side from right-back, Kjaer and Gabbia will be the central defenders and Theo Hernandez will make up the four-man defence at left-back.

In the midfield, Tijjani Reijnders will start next to Yacine Adli, who has a big game ahead of him, with Ismael Bennacer set to return in the fixture against Frosinone. Ruben Loftus-Cheek will start ahead of them in the ’10’.

Either side of the Englishman, as always, will be Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao. Olivier Giroud will lead the line.

Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer, Gabbia, Hernandez; Reijnders, Adli; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Giroud.

    1. Yeah, Calabria has really been a weak spot for this team this year. Even Florenzi has been better. And he was beaten multiple times in the first matchup against Bologna and that has me worried.
