"Indeed, instead of Davide Bartesaghi, Pervis Estupinan should be the starting left wing-back for Milan as per Sky Italia. The former has only just recovered from a minor muscle discomfort so that likely plays a big part, but Allegri also said during his presser that the Ecuadorian has improved a lot lately."
"If he doesn't start, then Bartesaghi will at least be a good option off the bench, also if one of the centre-backs were to get injured. His late recovery is actually kind of crucial in that sense, as Allegri would have had to rely on David Odogu if not."
AC Milan defeated Cremonese 2-0 with a strong starting eleven, though several players were one yellow card away from suspension. For the upcoming derby against Inter, manager Massimiliano Allegri plans minimal rotation, making just one change to the lineup. Pervis Estupinan will replace Davide Bartesaghi at left wing-back, as Bartesaghi has only recently recovered from minor muscle discomfort. Allegri noted that Estupinan has shown significant improvement recently. Bartesaghi's recovery is important for squad depth, as his absence would have forced reliance on David Odogu as a defensive backup option.
