Last Sunday, Milan got the better of Spezia 2-1 in a league-fixture. Theo Hernandez gave the lead to the Rossoneri inside the opening 21 minutes before Spezia equalised through Daniel Maldini’s 59th-minute strike. And then, just when it looked the points might be shared, Olivier Giroud netted an 89th-minute winner to help Milan secure all three points. It was Stefano Pioli’s side’s ninth league-win of the season. After that, Milan traveled to Cremona to take on a Cremonese side yet to win since returning to Serie A in the summer and languishing at the relegation zone.
Tuesday’s encounter saw Pioli’s side totally dominate the possession but failed to find a way through a resolute home-defence, allowing Lazio to leapfrog them into second place in the standings. Fiorentina, on the other hand, got the better of Spezia on Wednesday, courtesy of goals from Giacomo Bonaventura and Luka Jovic. It was the Viola’s fifth league-win of the campaign. Meanwhile Vincenzo Italiano’s side are unbeaten in each of their last three Serie A away games and would make it four in a row if they can cause an upset this weekend.
AC milan probable starting lineup: Tatarusanu, Kalulu, Tomori, Kjaer, Hernandez, Tonali, Bennacer, Krunic, Diaz, Leao, Giroud
Fiorentina probable starting lineup: Terracciano, Dodo, Milenkovic, Martinez, Quarta, Biraghi, Amrabat, Mandragora, Ikone, Bonaventura, Kouame, Kovic
