AC Milan host Pisa at San Siro on Friday night in Serie A action. The league leaders are aiming to consolidate their place at the summit, while the newly-promoted visitors continue their hunt for a first victory of the season.
AC Milan vs Pisa – Predicted lineup and team news
Milan Team News
The Rossoneri could see the return of Christopher Nkunku, who is back in full training after recovering from a toe injury. The French forward, formerly of Chelsea, is likely to feature among the substitutes for this encounter.
Rafael Leao will spearhead Milan’s attack once again after netting twice in last weekend’s 2-1 comeback win over Fiorentina, sealing the win with a composed 86th-minute penalty. The Portuguese winger’s recent form will be vital as Milan looks to maintain their momentum.
However, the home side remains without several names. Adrien Rabiot is sidelined with a calf issue and is unlikely to return for at least another month. Christian Pulisic is still undergoing treatment for a hamstring injury sustained during international duty with the USMNT and has yet to return to training.
Elsewhere, Ruben Loftus-Cheek continues to battle a muscle complaint, while full-back Pervis Estupinan remains unavailable due to an ankle injury.
Head coach Massimiliano Allegri is also expected to freshen up his backline, with Koni De Winter in line to replace Fikayo Tomori, who has been heavily relied upon in recent weeks.
AC Milan Predicted Lineup
Possible AC Milan starting XI: Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Ricci, Bartesaghi; Gimenez, Leao.
When will the match kick off?
The match will kick off at 7:45pm BST on Friday, 23rd October.
