MN: Early indications arrive regarding Fonseca’s team selection for Fiorentina game | OneFootball

AC Milan will switch back to Serie A action after their Champions League defeat to Bayer Leverkusen when they take on Fiorentina on Sunday in the final game before the international break.

According to what is being reported by MilanNews, Paulo Fonseca is thinking of naming the same team that was seen in the derby and against Lecce, which is of course the 4-4-2/4-2-4 attacking side with two strikers.

Indeed, the report claims that Fonseca is inclined to use Alvaro Morata just behind Tammy Abraham, with Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao on the flanks. Morata was not at 100% on Tuesday night due to bursitis so started on the bench, but came on and made a big impact.

In defence, there could be a couple of changes because Davide Calabria and Strahinja Pavlovic are both aiming for a starting spot. Calabria has recovered from an adductor issue and wants his place back from Emerson Royal, while Pavlovic has not started any of the last three games.

Theo Hernandez and Mike Maignan seem sure of keeping their places, while there is no mention of the midfield pairing of Tijjani Reijnders and Youssouf Fofana being disrupted either, given the chemistry they are building.
