Luka Jovic Milanello

Luka Jovic could play from the first minute in AC Milan’s clash against Udinese on Saturday evening, as a report claims. Olivier Giroud has had a full week to rest since his brace against Napoli, but that has nothing to do with the decision on Saturday.

Milan need to bounce back with a win on Saturday, following the disappointing 2-2 draw away at Napoli. Giroud was the protagonist in that game with two great goals but he might not play from start against Udinese.

According to Tuttosport (see photo below), Pioli could give Jovic the chance from start as the Serbian needs to show his qualities. Nothing has been decided yet, it’s worth pointing out, but the decision to bench Giroud could have to do with the crucial game against PSG next week.

Both games are very important and it remains to be seen what decision the head coach will make in the end. Saturday’s game is scheduled for 20:45 CET and despite the recent form, another good attendance figure is expected.
