Spal-Milan, probable lineups

Spal host AC Milan in the last Serie A match for this season. Tonight’s encounter is also the last hope of the Rossoneri to qualify for Champions League.

Tonight at 20:30, the Rossoneri play their last Serie A match for this season. Spal-Milan is also the last chance of the Red and Blacks to qualify for Champions League. Only a part of the Rossoneri fans attention will be on Spal-Milan because participation in Europe is depended by he final result of Inter-Empoli and Atalanta-Sassuolo, to be played at the same time.

Even for this match, coach Gennaro Gattuso confirms his preferred 4-3-3 lineup. Gigio Donnarumma will protect the goal with Romagnoli, Musacchio and Ricardo Rodriguez in front of him. Up until now the identify of the forth defender was a mystery at this point. Ignazio Abate was supposed to start but he suffered a slight muscular injury during the week. However, the veteran right back is fully fit and will represent Milan for the last time in his career.

No changes in midfield. With Lucas Paqueta suspended until the end of the season, Gattuso’s choices are extremely limited in this department. Like in recent games, Rino will confirm Bakayoko and Kessie alongside Calhanoglu. The Turkey international started the season as a winger but will ended it in midfield.

For Spal-Milan, Gattuso also confirms the attacking trio of recent games. With important goals and assists, Fabio Borini has established himself as a member of the starting eleven at the end of the season. The Italian will start on the left with Suso as right winger. Both will be in support of Krzysztof Piatek. If the Pole finds the back of the net tonight he will become the first player in Serie A history to reach double digits with two different teams in the same season.
