AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli is not expected to make any changes to his starting line-up for the game against Napoli tomorrow compared to the side that beat them just over a week ago.
According to what is being reported by Sky, Pioli should stick with the XI that won 4-0 at the Maradona which means Mike Maignan will be in goal with Davide Calabria, Simon Kjaer, Fikayo Tomori and Theo Hernandez as the back four.
Sandro Tonali and Rade Krunic should be the deeper midfielders with Ismael Bennacer ahead of them tasked with pinning Lobotka, while Rafael Leao, Brahim Diaz and Olivier Giroud complete the attack.
Thiaw, Pobega, Saelemaekers, Rebic and Origi are back on the bench therefore, with Kalulu set to be available for the return leg.
For Napoli, both Osimhen and Raspadori worked individually and at the moment the latter is the only striker certain to be available at San Siro. In defence Oliveira is ahead of Mario Rui while Lozano should start over Politano.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Krunic, Tonali; Brahim Diaz, Bennacer, Leao; Giroud.
Probable Napoli XI (4-3-3): Meret; DiLorenzo, Rrahmani, KIm, Oliveira; Anguissa, Lobotka, Zielinski; Lozano, Raspadori, Kvaratskhelia.
Please no calabria on the right wing…
clearly he would play at the right back and not right wing and if have seen both the matches we have played against napoli this season then you will know that he pretty much pocketed kvarshkelia in both matches.
Kalulu suppose to replace Calabria.
No No Calabria
I can’t wait for this match ..I can really see us winning this match ,and I have got a feeling Olivier Giroud is going to be one of the main threats to Napoli .
Rafeol leao is unstoppable and of course he will play a major part ..I am fed up with criticism this team has had to take ..We are doing very well , can finish in the top four in the league and I expect us to reach the semis in the champions leauge ,surely this is success .
So let’s get behind our team ..we have a great manager in pioli …We are AC Milan
