📋 Team News: Torino

Borna Sosa (flu), Ivan Ilić (muscular problems), Adrien Tamèze (Calf injury), Perr Schuurs (Knee surgery), Emirhan İlkhan (Cruciate ligament injury), Duván Zapata (Cruciate ligament tear) and Alieu Njie (Broken ankle) will not be able to play for Torino boss Paolo Vanoli.

We think that Il Toro will probably use a 4-2-3-1 formation in the match featuring V. Milinkovic-Savic, S. Walukiewicz, Guillermo Maripan, Saul Coco, Cristiano Biraghi, Samuele Ricci, Karol Linetty, Valentino Lazaro, Nikola Vlasic, Yann Karamoh and Che Adams.

ℹ️ Team News: AC Milan

AC Milan boss Sérgio Conceição has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Kyle Walker (Hamstring injury), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (muscular problems), Emerson Royal (Calf injury) and Alessandro Florenzi (Cruciate ligament tear) can’t be considered.

We are inclined to think that i Rossoneri seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup by sending out Mike Maignan, Alex Jimenez, Fikayo Tomori, Strahinja Pavlovic, Theo Hernandez, Youssouf Fofana, Tijjani Reijnders, Yunus Musah, Joao Felix, Rafael Leao and Santiago Gimenez.

⚡ Prediction

We’re thinking that Torino might well have a job on their hands to put one past this AC Milan team who we think will likely just have the edge.

That’s why we have predicted a good tussle with a 0-1 victory for AC Milan at the end of this one.

Should be a close one.
