Pisa-Milan: Preparing for the challenge in Tuscany
The long-awaited day has finally arrived! Today Milan will take the field to face Pisa after an extended wait, culminating in the ten days since their previous game against Bologna. The Rossoneri team landed yesterday evening at Pisa airport, coming from Malpensa, and after a short transfer, reached the hotel for the pre-match fine-tuning. Coach Massimiliano Allegri is set for final evaluations on the lineup, and in this respect, there are various speculations about the tactical choices to be made, particularly regarding the attack.
Market: Eyes on Potulski
An interesting note comes from Sky Sport Germany: Milan, alongside Inter and Como, has set sights on young Polish defender Potulski, born in 2007, who confirms his potential with a remarkable physical presence already. With competitors such as Brighton and Chelsea, investing in such a talent would be a clever move for the future of the Rossoneri squad.
Probable lineup: Some surprises for Allegri
Moving on to the lineup choices, the latest indications suggest one change compared to the match against Bologna. Allegri seems willing to confirm the Nkunku-Loftus-Cheek duo, who had a good performance in the last outing, although the inclusion of Leão, Füllkrug, and Pulisic on the bench heats up the atmosphere.
The decision not to deploy Leão, recovering from an injury, as well as Füllkrug, who has sweated to ensure a robust attack, raises questions. However, Allegri may plan to reserve them for the second half, where they could make a real difference.
Defensive Situation and Injuries
The defense will see Tomori inserted in place of De Winter, with Maignan ready between the posts, Gabbia and Pavlović completing the defensive unit. It is crucial to emphasize that Athekame, Fofana, and Rabiot are on yellow card warnings, and a caution could jeopardize their presence in the next match against Como. This creates an additional layer of tension to consider.
The Calendar and the Upcoming Opponent
Looking ahead, the upcoming matches with Parma and Cremonese, before the derby, will require maximum focus, considering Milan’s unfavorable past results in these matches.
Finally, the coaching change at Pisa makes the match even more delicate, necessitating utmost care to avoid surprises. The sole objective is to bring home the three points!
