MN: Predicted Milan XI to face Genoa – Jovic given the nod as only option | OneFootball

AC Milan will face Genoa tomorrow, and we are seeing the latest suggestions about what team may line up for the clash.

It is a huge game for Milan for many reasons, however, Sergio Conceicao will be hoping to get his third successive win for the first time as the Rossoneri’s head coach, and as alluded to in his press conference, there will be no rotation.

So, Milan News brings the latest team predictions.

Between the sticks, it is no surprise that Mike Maignan is expected to start, and he should captain the side again, whilst Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia and Strahinja Pavlovic should maintain their positions once again.

A midfield bank of four is expected, with Tijjani Reijnders and Youssouf Fofana being flanked by Alex Jimenez and Theo Hernandez. Then, Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic will operate ahead of them.

The big news in the team, though, is that Luka Jovic will return from his injury, potentially earlier than what the Diavolo had wanted him to. However, this is a forced change due to Tammy Abraham’s injury.

Santiago Gimenez and Francesco Camarda will both be hoping to make cameos from the bench, you would imagine, with the former hoping to prove himself.

Predicted Milan XI (3-4-3): Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Jimenez, Fofana, Reijnders, Hernandez; Pulisic, Jovic, Leao.
