Team News
AC Milan
Atalanta
- Milan rested most of their typical XI in midweek, so most of them will be back here in Serie A.
- Mattia Caldara made his debut with Milan against Dudelange, but Gennaro Gattuso might wait a bit longer before fielding him in the domestic league.
- Josip Ilicic is back to full fitness and made an appearance in the previous game.
- While it's going to be difficult to win his place back from Mario Pasalic, Ilicic might start instead of Alejandro Gomez, should "El Papu" not recover from his physical problem.
Having rested a lot of their top players on thursday, expect Milan to win 2-1, 2-2 is also possible
3-0
Milan win
Atalanta have certainly fallen away, and don't see San Siro as the likely venue to get back in their groove - might be a good move to play Rigoni for this one. Time for el pipita to bag a couple, in an otherwise unconvincing (as ever) 2-1 win for Milan.
