Champions League line-ups: Milan vs. Crvena Zvezda | OneFootball

Milan bring in Ruben Loftus-Cheek with Rafael Leao and Alvaro Morata in a must-win Champions League game with Crvena Zvezda.

It kicks off at San Siro at 20.00 GMT.

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from this game, Juventus-Manchester City and Benfica-Bologna on the Liveblog.

The Rossoneri need to shake off Friday’s 2-1 Serie A defeat to Atalanta and the tension generated by coach Paulo Fonseca’s rant at referees.

They also have problems caused by the absence of Christian Pulisic, Noah Okafor, Alessandro Florenzi, Ismael Bennacer and Luka Jovic.

Loftus-Cheek therefore steps into the trequartista role with Rafael Leao, Samuel Chukwueze and Morata.

Crvena Zvezda already lost at 4-0 San Siro to Inter earlier this season in the Champions League.

However, they also ended a run of four straight defeats with a 5-1 demolition of VfB Stuttgart.

The Serbians are without Omri Glazer and Peter Olayinka, but can count on former Milan midfielder Rade Krunic and ex-Torino winger Nemanja Radonjic.

After a rough start in the competition, Milan have won their last three Champions League matches against Club Brugge, Real Madrid and Slovan Bratislava.
