Milan’s predicted XI for Genoa clash – Chukwueze and Pulisic together

AC Milan will take on Genoa tomorrow and with Juventus still ‘just’ five points behind, the Rossoneri will be looking for a win to defend second place. As confirmed by Stefano Pioli, it will be a very attacking-minded starting eleven. 

Ruben Loftus-Cheek picked up an injury last time out and will thus miss the game tomorrow. As Pioli stated during his press conference earlier today, this means that we will see the attacking-minded 4-2-3-1 once again with Samuel Chukwueze and Christian Pulisic starting.

According to MilanNews, Fikayo Tomori and Theo Hernandez will be back in the eleven after serving suspensions against Juventus. The midfield will stay the same while Alessandro Florenzi will replace Yunus Musah at right-back. Marco Sportiello will also keep his spot, as Mike Maignan is injured.

Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Sportiello; Florenzi, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Adli, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Giroud

Pioli also confirmed during the presser that Pierre Kalulu and Tommaso Pobega have been called up for the game. They have both fully recovered from serious injuries and could get some minutes tomorrow, depending on how the game pans out.

The game is scheduled for 18:00 CEST and the Curva Sud will be present, but there will be no cheering due to their protest.
