"AC Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri has named his final starting line-up of 2025, with come changes compared to the Supercoppa Italiana. In his pre-match press conference, Allegri revealed that Rafael Leao will be out of the game because he is still feeling a bit of discomfort, having not played since the 3-2 comeback win over Torino earlier in the month. He also confirmed that Matteo Gabbia will not make it back as he continues to recover from the hyper-extended knee that he sustained during the draw with Sassuolo."
"Mike Maignan will remain between the sticks, whilst the defence will be made up of Fikayo Tomori, Koni De Winter and Strahinja Pavlovic. Alexis Saelemaekers and Davide Bartesaghi will be the right and left wing-backs respectively, with Luka Modric, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Adrien Rabiot the starting midfield trio."
