Milan-Hellas Verona, the probable formations

AC Milan and Hellas Verona will open the Saturday of the fifth day of Serie A. Kickoff at 3 p.m. at the San Siro. The Rossoneri are called to redemption after the heavy knockout in the derby against Inter and the white-net draw in the Champions League with Newcastle.

Pioli is expected to rely on the trident consisting of Giroud, Leao and Pulisic in attack. In defense, however, the former Lazio man should field a three-man defense with Tomori, Kjaer and Thiaw. Resting turn for Theo Hernandez and Calabria.

Baroni is expected to deploy Djuric as center forward, with Ngonge and Folorunsho in the three-quarter. In the middle of the field trust Hongla and Duda, with Lazovic and Faraoni on the outsides.

Probable lineups

MILAN (3-4-3): Sportiello; Thiaw, Kjaer, Tomori; Musah, Krunic, Reijnders, Florenzi; Pulisic, Giroud, Leao. All. Pioli

HELLAS VERONA (3-4-2-1): Montipò; Magnani, Cabal, Hien; Faraoni, Hongla, Duda, Lazovic; Ngonge, Folorunsho; Djuric. All. Baroni
