AC Milan will battle an injury emergency as they welcome Stefano Pioli’s Fiorentina to San Siro for a Sunday night game at San Siro.
During his pre-game press conference, Massimiliano Allegri admitted that the injuries will play a big part in how he sets up his Milan side, but at the same time he doesn’t want them to be excuses. Pioli’s team, on the other hand, are looking for their first league win of the season.

The Rossoneri have the chance to go top with a win, and this morning’s newspapers in Italy speak of various opportunities.
La Gazzetta dello Sport: “A chance for Milan. Five players out injured and Loftus-Cheek at risk, but Modric leads the way. If they beat Fiorentina tonight, they’ll be alone in first place.”
Corriere dello Sport: “Leao on a mission. Gudmundsson with Kean. Allegri chooses Rafa: he wants first place. Moise is ready. San Siro emotions for Pioli. Fagioli, an exam in front of his idol Modric.”
QS: “Milan, Allegri against Pioli, relying on Leao for the overtake.”
