Return of Serie A this Saturday at 6 p.m. with a huge poster between AC Milan and Juventus. The Bianconeri go to San Siro to challenge the Rossoneri in the shock of this 13th day of Serie A. An Old Lady with a good number of absentees and some uncertainties.
Big match to come between Paulo Fonseca's AC Milan and Thiago Motta's Juventus this Saturday. Juventus faces a Milan ranked in 7th place with 18 points and who can come back very close to Juve in the event of a victory. With a record of 5 wins for 3 draws and 3 defeats, AC Milan had a rather delicate start to the season. In recent matches, the team has found its cruising speed since it remains in three matches without defeat, including a prestigious success in Madrid in the Champions League. Coming very close to the exit, Fonseca set things right and today his team is back in business.
A Milanese team which has changed little unlike last season even if Alvaro Morata (2 goals), a former member of the Turin house, joined Lombardy in the transfer window. For the rest, Rafael Leão (3 goals, 3 assists), Samuel Chukwueze (1 goal) or Christian Pulisic, top scorer with 5 goals, remain the number one dangers offensively. Distrust also in the middle with Youssouf Fofana, Yunus musah but also Tijani Reijnders who is progressing more and more. Juventus will also have to face the French Theo Hernandez and Mike Maignan, the goalkeeper of the French team. For this match, Milan will have to make do with the absences of Ismaël Bennacer and Alessandro Florenzi who are injured.
A 4-2-3-1 system with Weah at the forefront and Cambiaso on the left
For Juventus and Thiago Motta, we will have to find solutions. Solutions because the Italian coach must deal with the absences of Dusan Vlahovic, Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Arkadiusz Milik, Vasilije Adzic, Douglas Luiz and Nico Gonzalez. A shower of withdrawals for the team which can be almost 9 points ahead of AC Milan in the event of success and even move ahead of Napoli in the standings.
Thus Thiago Motta should line up a team in 4-2-3-1 with Michele Di Gregorio in goals and a young defense made up of Savona, Gatti, Kalulu (on loan from AC Milan) and Cambiaso. A midfield with Manuel Locatelli and Khephren Thuram, while on the wings Kenan Yildiz on the left, Francisco Conceiçao on the right and Teun Koopmeiners in the leader position. With Vlahovic, Milik and Adzic absent, it is Timothy Weah who will have the difficult task of leading the attack, he who knows Mike Maignan, a former Lille player, just like him.
Motta's squad for this match right here
Compo probable AC Milan (4-2-3-1) : Maignan / Emerson – Cabbia (cap.) – Tomori – Hernandez / Fofana – Reijnders / Pulisic – Musah Leao / Morata.
Compo probable Juventus (4-2-3-1) : Di Gregorio / Savona – Gatti (cap.) – Kalulu – Cambiaso / Locatelli – Thuram / Conceiçao – Koopmeiners (McKennie) – Yildiz / Weah.
