GdS: Predicted Milan XI to face Napoli – English duo to start; Leao could be rested | OneFootball

Sergio Conceicao and his AC Milan will be up against Napoli on Sunday evening, hoping to keep their top-four hopes alive. There could be some interesting XI changes, according to a report.

The game is indeed very important for the Rossoneri, but also for the Partenopei who have won just one of their last seven games. In short, it should be an exciting clash underneath the floodlights at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

According to today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), there could be some interesting changes to the starting eleven for Milan. In attack, Tammy Abraham is currently the favourite over Santiago Gimenez, following the great performance off the bench against Como.

In midfield, Ruben Loftus-Cheek could play from start alongside Youssouf Fofana or Warren Bondo, while it should be noted that Yunus Musah is suspended. The Englishman has looked good in training and Conceicao has already praised him a lot.

In the attacking trio, there could be some changes too as the Coppa Italia semi-final against Inter is scheduled for Wednesday next week. Rafael Leao could get some rest with Joao Felix, who has been benched in the last three games, getting the chance instead.

Predicted Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Walker, Gabbia, Thiaw, Hernandez; Loftus-Cheek, Fofana/Bondo; Pulisic, Reijnders, Joao Felix; Abraham.
