AC Milan will take on Bologna in the 9th round of Serie A tomorrow and after the defeat to Porto, they want to bounce back with a win. They are currently on 22 points and could thus continue their fantastic start to the league season.
According to MilanNews, Stefano Pioli is expected to make two changes to the lineup we saw against Porto mid-week. The first change will take place in the attacking trio, as Samu Castillejo will get a chance from start. The Spaniard was successful against Verona in perhaps deserves this.
Up front, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is currently ahead of Olivier Giroud in the race and that makes two changes. Contrary to previous reports, it seems Simon Kjaer will keep his spot in the heart of the defence, with Alessio Romagnoli starting on the bench again.
It’s a pretty strong XI, despite the many absences, but it will still be a very tough game for the Rossoneri. You can read our preview of the game here.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Tatarusanu; Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Ballo-Touré; Tonali, Bennacer; Castillejo, Krunic, Leao; Ibrahimovic.

Rest Tomori and Calabria. They need it.
Would love to rest Leao too but there is no one to replace him.
Daniel Maldini can replace Leao
