Stefano Pioli has announced his starting XI for tonight’s big game between AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain. Compared to the reverse fixture, the manager has made two changes including putting Rade Krunic on the bench.
Tonight’s game is very important for Milan who have collected just two points after the first three games in the Champions League. A win would bring them right back into the Round of 16 race, but it won’t be easy.
Davide Calabria will start on the right-hand side of the defence, as opposed to Pierre Kalulu who started in the reverse fixture, and Fikayo Tomori will be the right centre-back today as well.
In midfield, Tijjani Reijnders will take the spot of Rade Krunic, with Yunus Musah playing to the left. Most likely, they will alternate positions throughout the game.
Finally, Christian Pulisic is back from injury and will thus partner up with Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leao in attack.
Official Milan XI (4-3-3): Maignan; Calabria, Tomori, Thiaw, Hernandez; Loftus-Cheek, Reijnders, Musah; Pulisic, Giroud, Leao.
Bench: Mirante, Nava; Bartesaghi, Florenzi; Adli, Krunić, Pobega; Chukwueze, Jović, Okafor.
Official PSG XI (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Skriniar, Marquinhos, L. Hernandez; Zaire-Emery, Ugarte, Vitinha; Dembele, Kolo Muani, Mbappe.
Bench: Letellier, Tenas; Mukiele; Fabián Ruiz, Lee, Soler; Barcola, Ramos
