AC Milan will be up against Roma tomorrow evening and as per the latest reports, Massimiliano Allegri is expected to make three changes to the starting eleven.
Milan wanted to bounce back with a win against Atalanta, following the draw against Pisa, but only managed one point once again. As such, tomorrow’s clash against Roma is very important for the Rossoneri as they want to get back to winning ways.
Rafael Leao has recovered from the game, disposing of the hip problem he felt against Atalanta, but Santiago Gimenez and Fikayo Tomori are both set to miss out. Ardon Jashari has returned to group training but he won’t be called up.
Loftus-Cheek and Nkunku to start
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, all of the changes but one will thus be forced. Koni De Winter is set to replace the injured Tomori at the back, while Christopher Nkunku is set to team up with Leao for the first time in attack.
In midfield, Ruben Loftus-Cheek is set for a starting spot after impressing against Atalanta and that should be at the expense of Samuele Ricci. If Allegri decides that Leao isn’t fully fit to start, however, then Ricci will start in midfield and Loftus-Cheek further up the pitch.
Predicted Milan XI (3-5-2): Maignan; De Winter, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Loftus-Cheek, Modric, Fofana, Bartesaghi; Nkunku, Leao.
Predicted Roma XI (3-4-2-1): Svilar; Hermoso, Mancini, Ndicka; Celik, El Aynaoui, Kone, Wesley; Cristante, Soule; Dybala.
