Youssouf Fofana has been a mainstay for AC Milan this season, but he will miss the Coppa Italia game tomorrow night with an injury. There has been a lot said about Fofana this season and his performances. However, he has been one of Massimiliano Allegri's most-used players, and the Italian has a lot of trust in the Frenchman, regardless of what others may think.
It would be fair to say that the Lazio ultras are out for revenge in the Coppa Italia against AC Milan, after Saturday's league defeat. The Serie A match at San Siro was full of controversy, mainly at the end of the game when Lazio believed that they should have had a penalty for a handball against Strahinja Pavlovic. The On-Field Review actually produced a free-kick in favour of Milan, with experts agreeing it wasn't a spot kick.
Christian Pulisic missed out on the first clash against Lazio on Saturday evening, but according to a report, AC Milan are hoping to have him back for the second one on Thursday. During training earlier this week, Pulisic sustained a 'mild muscle strain' and Milan's medical staff immediately sidelined him. The player himself was hoping to make it back in time for Saturday's clash against Lazio, but the Rossoneri decided not to call him up as a precaution.
