AC Milan will name a largely unchanged side against Atalanta on Tuesday night; however, it could be a big chance for some.

The result against Pisa was not good enough, but considering the circumstances, it is not the end of the world. Saying that, though, some may be close to their final chance if they are not there yet already. Especially with others returning.

Possible XI for Atalanta-Milan

For this game, then, Massimiliano Allegri will look to keep the team largely the same, as Sky Sport reports tonight.

Mike Maignan will remain in goal, whilst Matteo Gabbia and Strahinja Pavlovic have no reason to be dropped from the back three. Fikayo Tomori will return alongside the duo, though, after Koni De Winter started on Friday night.

Alexis Saelemaekers and Davide Bartesaghi remain the choices at wing-back, largely out of necessity, whilst the midfield also follows suit. Luka Modric will sit at the base, supported by Youssouf Fofana and Samuele Ricci.

Leading the line, Santiago Gimenez will partner with Rafael Leao once again. Given that Ruben Loftus-Cheek is getting back to full speed, and Christian Pulisic is getting there, chances could become slim for the Mexican if he does not start scoring.

Sky Predicted Milan XI (3-5-2): Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Ricci, Bartesaghi; Gimenez, Leao.
