With two days to go until AC Milan take on Napoli at the Stadio Maradona, some more news has emerged regarding the team that Stefano Pioli will pick.
Peppe Di Stefano spoke live on Sky (via MilanNews) from Milanello and he spoke about Milan’s probable line-up for Sunday’s match against Luciano Spalletti’s side, which will be a precursor for the Champions League quarter-finals which come in a couple of weeks.
The Rossoneri will return to a back four as per the journalist, with Davide Calabria on the right and Theo Hernandez on the left, while in the middle Fikayo Tomori will be joined by either Simon Kjaer or Malick Thiaw.
Sandro Tonali and Ismael Bennacer will be the midfield pairing, while in attack Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud are sure of their places on the left and up front respectively.
Rade Krunic should act as the attacking midfielder, with Brahim Diaz and Alexis Saelemaekers in a battle to start on the right with the Spaniard the favourite at the moment.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer/Thiaw, Tomori, Theo; Bennacer, Tonali; Brahim, Krunić, Leao; Giroud.
I hate this formation without kessie
I think this formation is balanced with krunic in the midfield
