The Rossoneri need a show of character to get a result tonight and open up the title race. AC Milan host Napoli at the San Siro tonight for a potential early season six-pointer in the Scudetto race. Napoli under new manager Antonio Conte have been rock solid defensively conceding just 5 goals in 9 games as they sit at the top of the table.
Napoli have kept 6 clean sheets thus far and have won their previous two fixtures 1-0. Milan will need to be wary of the grinding out type of performance where Conte?s men can frustrate us and lead to mistakes.
The line up will be entirely shaken up for this one.
Tijjani Reijnders and Theo Hernandez are suspended. Fikayo Tomori and Rafael Leao have been dropped. Matteo Gabbia is injured. The result is a makeshift defence where Pavlovic and Thiaw partner in the middle and Terracciano somehow gets the nod at LB again. Up front, it is an ultra attacking line behind Morata consisting of Chukwueze, Pulisic and Okafor.
Milan will need to look out for Matteo Politano and Romelu Lukaku who usually thrive against us and hope to deliver from the start.
The biggest concern is the lack of depth on the bench. Jovic and Abraham remain injured which means Camarda gets the call up.
Expected Line Up (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Emerson, Thiaw, Pavlovic, Terracciano; Fofana, Loftus-Cheek; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Okafor, Morata.
