GdS: Predicted XIs for Bologna vs. AC Milan - Allegri forced to use unprecedented attack
"After the drama of deadline day, AC Milan will return to action on the field tonight, taking on Bologna away from home. Milan come into the game at the Stadio Renato dall'Ara under pressure to win after Inter, Napoli and Juventus all did over the weekend. Massimiliano Allegri's side are battling another injury bug, and have drawn three of six games in 2026 so far."
"The bad news concerns Alexis Saelemaekers and Christian Pulisic. Both have been ruled out of making the trip with injuries that have been bugging them in the recent period. Santiago Gimenez will also be out as he continues to recover from surgery, while Rafael Leao is only fit enough for the bench. As a result, La Gazzetta dello Sport report that Allegri will use the so far unseen front two of Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Christopher Nkunku, with the former playing just behind the latter."
AC Milan travel to Bologna under pressure after Inter, Napoli and Juventus all won over the weekend. Milan have drawn three of six matches in 2026 and are coping with multiple injuries. Alexis Saelemaekers and Christian Pulisic are ruled out of the trip, Santiago Gimenez remains sidelined recovering from surgery, and Rafael Leao is only fit for the bench. Massimiliano Allegri is expected to deploy Ruben Loftus-Cheek playing behind Christopher Nkunku as a new front two. Zachary Athekame replaces Saelemaekers on the right, Davide Bartesaghi is set as left wing-back, and Mike Maignan starts in goal.
