Milan-Atalanta: the probable formations

Milan-Atalanta: the probable formations

The Sunday postponement of the 24th day of Serie A features the big match between AC Milan and Atalanta, with kickoff set for 20:45. The Rossoneri are looking for their third consecutive success in the league, while the Nerazzurri want to bounce back after the false step with Lecce, to stay clinging to the Champions zone.

In the hosts there is great expectation for the return of Maignan, who returns as a starter after a five-month absence. Trust again to Thiaw in the center of defense, while in midfield space is given to Krunic with Bennacer still out. In attack there is no touching Giroud, paired with Leao, with Brahim Diaz in support.

Gasperini must do without the disqualified Demiral, but can count on the return of Scalvini. De Roon returns in midfield, while on the flanks Zappacosta is favored over Soppy on the right, with Maehle on the left. In attack, trust the Lookman-Hojlund pair with Ederson, favored over Boga, behind them.

Likely lineups.

MILAN (3-4-1-2): Maignan; Kalulu, Tomori, Thiaw; Messias, Tonali, Krunic, Theo Hernandez; Diaz; Giroud, Leao. All. Pioli

ATALANTA (3-4-1-2): Musso; Toloi, Djimsiti, Scalvini; Zappacosta, Koopmeiners, De Roon, Maehle; Ederson; Hojlund, Lookman. All. Gasperini
