The defenders are back. It goes on stage at San Siro on Sunday at 6pm Milan-Genoa, thirty-fifth matchday of Serie A. A match between two teams that have little to ask of this championship because they find themselves in limbo: the Rossoneri must maintain second place, but are already qualified for the next Champions League; the rossoblù have achieved salvation, but cannot aim for Europe.
After the disqualification served last weekend, Stefano Pioli finds both Fikayo again Tomori that Theo Hernandez in defense, while Davide Calabria will have to serve one more match (with him also Yunus Musah). In defense it will be the turn of one of Gabbia or Thiaw to support the Englishman, while on the right there will be room for Florenzi, although a Terracciano surprise cannot be ruled out. Doubts also between midfield and attack: the absence of Loftus-Cheek uncovers a position in the attacking midfield that could be occupied by Chukwueze, with Pulisic centralized. In this way Adli and Bennacer would compete for a shirt in the middle of the pitch. In front Okafor threatens Giroud.
MILAN (4-2-3-1): Door; Florenzi, Gabbia/Thiaw, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Adli/Bennacer, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Giroud. (Available: Nava, Raveyre; Terracciano, Gabbia/Thiaw, Simic, Bartesaghi; Adli/Bennacer, Pobega, Zeroli; Jovic, Okafor) Coach Stefano Pioli.
