MN: Predicted Milan XI for Lazio clash – Allegri confirms duo as doubts leave

1 week ago 45

It seems Massimiliano Allegri has decided on his team for AC Milan’s game against Lazio tomorrow night. 

There have been a few doubts in the run-up to this weekend’s game. Christian Pulisic and Alexis Saelemaekers were doubts in midweek after both suffered injuries in training. Since then, the Belgian has been cleared. However, Pulisic will be absent for this game.

Then, on Friday morning, it seemed that Allegri had a few doubts remaining over his team, but they are gone now, it seems.

According to MilanNews, the defence will remain unchanged. They have been in fine form, so there is no need to shift anyone. Mike Maignan, then, will start behind the bank of Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia and Strahinja Pavlovic.

Saelemaekers, despite the scare, will start again on the right, whilst Davide Bartesaghi has won the battle again, so he will start on the left, keeping Pervis Estupinan on the bench. Youssouf Fofana remains in the middle, alongside Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot.

Then, Rafael Leao will lead the line, and he will be partnered by Christopher Nkunku. The Frenchman has only started two Serie A games so far, and will look to make an impact in a rare start.

Predicted Milan XI (3-5-2): Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Bartesaghi; Nkunku, Leao.
