Team News

AC Milan
Sassuolo
  • Fikayo Tomori is the latest victim of AC Milan's injury crisis and has been ruled out for two months.
  • With Matteo Gabbia set to return in January, Théo Hernández will likely start at centre-back on Saturday.
  • Daniel Boloca and Kristian Kristian Thorstvedt have been ruled out for Saturday's match.

Prediction

  • A late goal from Luka Jovic helped AC Milan to avoid an embarassing defeat in Salerno before Christmas.
  • Stefano Pioli's job is now at risk as the Rossoneri are 11 points off Inter and with their top four spot at risk.
  • Sassuolo are also enduring a difficult moment in the league with three defeats in their last four matches, but will fancy their chances against the Rossoneri having won each of their last three trips to Milan, including a 5-2 demolition earlier this year.
  • Both sides thrive on direct attacks and their shaky defences could lead to a pretty open game.
