"Starting with the hosts, while AC Milan might have a monumental challenge on their hands in the race to capture a record-breaking 20th Serie A crown this season, the Rossoneri are enjoying what has been a stellar campaign under Max Allergi's guidance. Currently sat in silver medal position among Italy's elite and cruising their way to a lucrative Champions League return, the former Juventus boss certainly finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high."
"Not featuring since the end of October, Mexican striker Santiago Giminez remains on the sidelines with an ankle issue. Finding the net on Friday night and now notching consecutive Serie A strikes, one-time Chelsea starlet Ruben Loftus-Cheek should be deployed in a more advanced role. Likewise, bagging a second domestic strike of the season last time out, 40-year-old Luka Modric will start in the middle of the park."
AC Milan sit second in Serie A and have lost only once in 24 league games, collecting 13 points from their last five matches and coming off a 2-1 win at Pisa. Manager Max Allegri presides over a confident squad aiming to push for a 20th league title and Champions League qualification. Adrien Rabiot is suspended and Santiago Giminez is sidelined with an ankle problem. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has scored in consecutive Serie A matches and will play a more advanced role, while veteran Luka Modric will start in midfield. Como lost 2-1 at home to Fiorentina and need an immediate response under Cesc Fabregas.
