Serie A: Milan vs. Udinese – probable line-ups, where to watch on TV | OneFootball

Massimiliano Allegri will switch to a four-man defence for a home Serie A match against Udinese, with Christian Pulisic playing as a left winger and Rafael Leao as a centre-forward.

It kicks off at 18:00 CET (17:00 BST) at the Stadio Meazza in Milan.

Cheveyo Balentien is injured for Milan, Matteo Gabbia is available for selection, but starting on the bench. Udinese must cope without Alessandro Zanoli and Jordan Zemura.

Multiple sources, including Sky Sport Italia, Gazzetta and Tuttosport, claim that Milan coach Allegri will switch to a four-man defence with Koni De Winter and Strahinja Pavlović starting as central defenders and Zachary Athekame as a right-back.

Samuele Ricci is favourite over Youssouf Fofana in the middle of the park, while Alexis Saelemaekers, Pulisic and Leao will form the attacking trident.
