After the loss to Lazio last weekend, it is not a surprise that Allegri is considering switching thing up a little. His strikers are not in form, and there has certainly been a bit of a drop in performances recently.
So, with the need to avoid a slip, which could significantly harm his team’s chances of the Champions League, he is going to be proactive, and alter his starting XI for the game against Torino.
Predicted Milan XI
Defensively, things will remain the same, with Mike Maignan being supported by Fikayo Tomori, Koni De Winter and Strahinja Pavlovic, as MilanNews reports. Davide Bartesaghi will also return at wing-back, after being absent with injury. On the opposite flank, Alexis Saelemaekers is almost immovable at this point.
Despite the suggestions of a change in midfield, Youssouf Fofana has won the battle against Samuele Ricci, so he will start alongside Luka Modric, and the returning Adrien Rabiot.
Leading the line, this morning’s suggestions about Niclas Füllkrug appear to have been correct, with him in line to start this game ahead of Rafael Leao. The decision, reportedly, is unrelated to last weekend’s episode. Christian Pulisic takes the other forward role.
Predicted Milan XI (3-5-2): Maignan; Tomori, De Winter, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Bartesaghi; Pulisic, Füllkrug.
