AC Milan is set to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge today, wrapping up their pre-season preparations with a friendly match against the Premier League side. The Rossoneri played to a 1-1 draw against Leeds United yesterday, but head coach Massimiliano Allegri utilized a rotated lineup for that game, suggesting that many of Milan’s key players will take the field against Chelsea. Star performers like Luka Modric, Rafael Leao, Mike Maignan, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek were rested in the previous match, leading to heightened anticipation for today’s encounter.
In terms of predicted lineups, Chelsea is expected to field a 4-2-3-1 formation with Sanchez in goal, supported by defenders including Adarabioyo and Cucurella. Meanwhile, AC Milan is anticipated to adopt a 3-5-1-1 setup featuring Maignan in goal and a solid midfield backbone led by Modric and Loftus-Cheek.
