Official: Atalanta vs. AC Milan starting XIs – one change from Frosinone win

AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has made just one change to the starting line-up for the game against Atalanta compared to the team that beat Frosinone last weekend.

With the crisis at centre-back having not improved, Theo Hernandez will play in the centre of defence alongside Fikayo Tomori. Alessandro Florenzi will be the left-back again and Davide Calabria the right-back, with Mike Maignan in goal.

The midfield will be Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tijjani Reijnders and Yunus Musah, though it remains to be seen if the Englishman will play in a more advanced role as he has done before.

Olivier Giroud returns from suspension to lead the attack, with Samuel Chukwueze to his right and Christian Pulisic on the left.

Official Atalanta XI (3-4-1-2): Musso; De Roon, Scalvini, Djimsiti; Ruggeri, Ederson, Pasalic, Zappacosta; Koopemeiners; Lookman, De Ketelaere.

Bench: Carnesecchi, Rossi, Holm, Muriel, Zortea, Adopo, Bonfanti, Mendicino, Del Lungo, Colombo, Manzoni, Miranchuk, Cisse.

Official Milan XI (4-3-3): Maignan; Calabria, Tomori, Hernandez, Florenzi; Loftus-Cheek, Reijnders, Musah; Chukwueze, Giroud, Pulisic.

Bench: Mirante, Nava, Simic, Bartesaghi, Krunic, Bennacer, Pobega, Adli, Chaka Traore, Romero, Jovic.
