After the thrilling victory in the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal against Inter, beaten 3-0, Milan returns to the field tomorrow at 12:30 PM. They will play at the “Penzo” against Venezia on the occasion of the 34th round of the Serie A Enilive championship.
The Rossoneri are not enjoying a great position in the standings and are in ninth place, distant from the Champions League but also from the Europa and Conference Leagues. The upcoming commitments will mainly be aimed at preparing for the Coppa Italia final on May 14, which cannot be missed under any circumstances.
Sergio Conceição is moving towards confirming the 3-4-3 formation that, in the last three matches, has given greater solidity to the defensive department, which has conceded only one goal. In front of Mike Maignan, Tomori, Gabbia, and Pavlovic should be seen again: there is a small doubt regarding the Italian center-back, who in recent days has been dealing with the aftereffects of whiplash to the neck that forced him to leave the field early during the derby; if he is not at his best, Thiaw is ready.
In midfield, Jimenez and Hernandez will patrol the wings, with the Fofana-Reijnders duo in the center. The front three will be formed by Pulisic-Jovic-Leao. Here too, there is a small doubt concerning the Serbian striker, the man of the moment: he is also not in top condition and might be preserved after three consecutive matches. In that case, Tammy Abraham is ready. Kyle Walker has also recovered for the bench.
MILAN (3-4-3):
Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Jimenez, Fofana, Reijnders, Theo Hernandez; Pulisic, Jovic, Leao.
