Massimiliano Allegri spoke in preview of the Milan derby, confirming the composition of his team and the details relating to the injured. The Napoli coach specified that Rrahmani, suffering from flu, has carried out recovery training and that, if his condition improves, he will participate in Wednesday's match. Otherwise, the choice will fall on Marianucci or Beukema. Allegri also highlighted the presence of a flu virus that has affected some players, but reiterated that if the players are fit, they will play.
For the match against Inter, Allegri outlined his game plan. Rabiot, Gila and Moreira will be available and will play from the first minute: Gila will resume the role of right back, Rabiot will take the central midfield position and Moreira will return to the wing, probably on the right in place of Hutchinson. The defense will be completed by De Winter, Pavlovic and a left back between Bartesaghi and Diawara, with preference for the latter. Modric, after the 45-minute rest against Bologna, will return to midfield from the first minute, as will Pulisic, who will play the role of attacking midfielder. Musah will take on the role of phosphorus in the midfield, while Goncalo Ramos will remain the starter in goal. Cisse and Hutchinson will start from the bench. The basic formation will be 4-3-3, but Rabiot's position could lead to a change in the system.
On the other hand, coach Cristian Chivu presented his lineup for the match against the Nerazzurri, with the aim of confirming the positive moment and obtaining a strong victory. Goalkeeper Josep Martinez will return after 180 minutes of rest, while the defense will consist of Bisseck, Akanji and Bastoni. Diouf should play on the right wing, while on the left the ballot remains open between Carlos Augusto, who arrives in amazing form, and Dimarco. In midfield, Barella will be ready, with Calhanoglu as director and Zielinski on the left, but Mkhitaryan and Sucic are ready to undermine him. In attack, Thuram will be forced to work overtime together with Pio Esposito, who has recovered after problems caused by the flu.
Meanwhile, Juventus have suffered a disciplinary disqualification for Francisco Conceiçao, who was banned for three matches following a red card received in the last Nations League match between Portugal and Norway. The provision was motivated by serious misconduct committed by the player towards the refereeing team during and at the end of the match. This disqualification could affect coach Allegri's composition for the derby, given that Conceiçao was expected for the team. The match, which will take place a few minutes apart, promises to be an intense confrontation between the two Milanese teams.
