AC Milan-Dudelange, probable lineups

AC Milan-Dudelange, Europa League

AC Milan-Dudelange, Europa League

Today at 18:55 CET at San Siro, AC Milan host Dudelange in the penultimate match of the Europa League group stage.

The stakes are high for today’s Europa League encounter at San Siro but still rotation is going to be the main theme of Milan-Dudelange. In fact, in addition to facing an easy opponent (on paper), it will also be inevitable considering the calendar of December and Gennaro Gattuso’s halved squad.

According to reports by Tuttosport, there could be important news for the penultimate match of the Europa League group stage. Starting from the defence, where we could finally see the debut of Stefan Simic from the first minute. The Czech centre back is part of AC Milan since 2014 but he has never played with the first team in an official match.

Cristian Zapata, Davide Calabria and Diego Laxalt complete the four man back-line. Like usual, in Europa League games, it will be Pepe Reina to protect the goal. Big surprises also in midfield with Gattuso likely to rest Frank Kessie and make room for Andrea Bertolacci alongside Tiemoue Bakayoko. Hakan Calhanoglu  will play on the left in midfield with Alen Halilovic on the opposite side.

In attack returns Gonzalo Higuain. The Argentine striker is suspended even for the upcoming Serie A match against Parma but he is free to play in Europa League. El Pipita must get back in form because he hasn’t scored in one month.

Samuel Castillejo was supposed to start from the first minute too but coach Gennaro Gattus has changed idea and will use the 4-4-2 lineup instead of the 4-3-3. Something that penalizes the Spanish winger. Patrick Cutrone will team with Higuain in attack. For the Devil, in any case, there is the obligation to win.

AC MILAN (4-4-2): Reina; Calabria, Simic, Zapata, Laxalt; Halilovic, Bakayoko, Bertolacci, Calhanoglu; Cutrone, Higuain.

DUDELANGE (4-4-2): Bonnefoi, Jordanov, Prempeh, Schnell, El Hriti; Stolz, Stelvio, Kruska, Couturier; Turpel, Sinani.
