Lazio vs Milan is the main even of Serie A’s round of 30. A very important match for the ambitions of both clubs.
After the unexpected stop against Spal, the Rossoneri travel to the Olimpico. Stefano Pioli’s squad, who lost Castillejo through injury, will face Lazio without their strikers Caicedo and Ciro Immobile. Nevertheless, suspensions will not reduce the importance of Lazio vs Milan. The defeats of both Roma and Napoli allows Milan to climb to sixth place in case of a victory.
For this match, the Rossoneri coach will rely on his typical 4-2-3-1 formation, with the return from the first minute of Conti in defence. Andrea will replace Calabria while Simon Kjaer will take Gabbia place. The back four will be completed by Alessio Romagnoli and Theo Hernandez in front of Gigio Donnarumma.
The French fullback will start from the first minute in Lazio vs Milan despite the worrisome injury suffered in the match against Spal. As always, Kessie and Bennacer will form the central duo in defence.
Coach Stefano Pioli has decided that it will be Alexis Saelemaekers to replace the injured Castillejo and not Bonaventura as initially thought. The Belgium right midfielder will likely play alongside Hakan Calhanoglu and Lucas Paqueta. In attack, surprisingly it will be Zlatan Ibrahimovic to start from the first minute with Ante Rbeuc given a chance to rest.
LAZIO (3-5-1-1): Strakosha; Patric, Acerbi, Radu; Lazzari, Parolo, Cataldi, Luis Alberto, Jony; Milinkovic-Savic; Correa.
MILAN (4-2-3-1): G. Donnarumma; Conti, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Theo Hernández; Kessie, Bennacer; Saelemaekers, Paqueta, Calhanoglu, Ibrahimovic.
