"AC Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri has some dilemmas to resolve ahead of the game against Lazio on Saturday night. Milan go into the game against the Biancocelesti with some confidence, having won the derby against Inter a few days ago. The match-winner on the scoresheet was Christian Pulisic, but it was Mike Maignan who stole the headlines with an MVP-worthy performance."
"There is pressure on to follow that up with another win, and in his pre-match press conference Allegri revealed that he is likely to be without Christian Pulisic. He stated: "Pulisic is unlikely to be available, but anything can happen tomorrow and the same thing the day after." So, with that unfortunate bit of news, MilanNews believe that Christopher Nkunku will come into the team, partnering Rafael Leao in the front two."
Allegri faces selection dilemmas ahead of the Lazio match after Milan's derby win over Inter, with goalkeeper Mike Maignan named man of the match. Christian Pulisic is unlikely to be available, so Christopher Nkunku is expected to partner Rafael Leao in a two-man attack. The likely formation is 3-5-2 with Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia and Strahinja Pavlovic in defense, and Saelemaekers and Davide Bartesaghi as wing-backs. The midfield trio is projected as Youssouf Fofana, Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot. Subs include Loftus-Cheek and others; Gimenez and Pulisic are injured.
