Sky: Probable Milan XI for crucial Fiorentina clash – Kessie preferred from start

AC Milan will take on Fiorentina tomorrow afternoon and after the win at Lazio, they will be looking to add another win to their tally. Given the success last time out, not many changes are expected to the starting XI. 

Stefano Pioli, in fact, is expected to make just one change to the starting XI we saw at the Olimpico last season. According to Sky Italia (via MilanNews), that change will be Ismael Bennacer instead of Brahim Diaz, who hasn’t impressed lately.

This obviously means that Franck Kessie will start in the attacking trio, which says a lot about both his importance and Diaz’s failure to shine. Either way, it’s pretty clear that Pioli has a preference XI-wise for these remaining games.

Kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 CEST tomorrow and San Siro is sold out for the game, meaning it should be a great atmosphere for the game. And Milan need all the support they can get in such a tense moment of the season.

Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Hernandez; Bennacer, Tonali; Messias, Kessie, Leao; Giroud.
