Il Milan reigning Italian champion opens the new season of A league against Udinese, in a San Siro ready for the party (expected later 70,000 spectators). In the Rossoneri there is a lot of anticipation for new signings (De Ketelaere above all), but Pioli is preparing for a complicated challenge: Udinese is, together with Juve, the only team that has emerged unscathed from the two comparisons with the Devil in Serie A (two draws) last season. Kick-off at 18:30 (match broadcast live exclusively by Dazn).
THE ULTIMATE – In Milan, Rebic is ready to replace Giroud, not in top condition. Messias and Origi recovered (with the Belgian striker who will need some time before recovering the pace of the match), only Sandro Tonali remains out for Pioli. Probable starting bench for De Ketelaere. Sottil, the new coach of the Bianconeri, still with the doubt Arslan, which remains to be evaluated. In defense Walace returns. Betonot yet 100%, starts on the bench.
THE LIKELY FORMATIONS
MILAN (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Tomori, Kalulu, Hernandez; Krunic, Bennacer; Messias, Diaz, Leao; Rebic. (Att. Pioli)
UDINESE (3-5-2): Silvestri; Becao, Nuytinck, Perez; Soppy, Pereyra, Wallace, Makengo, Udogie; Deulofeu, Success. (All.Sottil)
