"Massimiliano Allegri chose to make five changes to the side that lost to Sassuolo a week ago. Koni De Winter came in for the suspended Fikayo Tomori, Samuele Ricci and Ruben Loftus-Cheek got the nod in midfield, Davide Bartesaghi returned on the left and Santiago Gimenez partnered Rafael Leao up front."
Milan’s top-four hopes suffered another setback with a home defeat to Atalanta. After a pre-match protest, Atalanta took control early, scoring twice in the first half through Ederson and Davide Zappacosta. Giacomo Raspadori then beat Mike Maignan at his near post to make it 3-0 early in the second half. Milan later reduced the deficit when Strahinja Pavlovic scored from a corner and Christopher Nkunku converted a late penalty won in added time, but Milan still lost. Roma, Como, and Juventus all won, worsening Milan’s position. Milan are level on points with fifth and must win both remaining games to reach the Champions League, despite recent inconsistency. Massimiliano Allegri made five changes, while Raffaele Palladino used a 3-4-2-1 shape with Zappacosta and Zalewski as wing-backs and De Ketelaere and Raspadori supporting Krstovic.
