Stefano Piloi is expected to make a handful of changes to his Milan line-up when the Rossoneri travel to Czechia to face Slavia Praha in the Europa League round of 16 second leg on Thursday evening. 

Milan carry over a 4-2 advantage from their victory in the home leg in San Siro last week. 

Aside from the injured Tomasso Pobega, Pioli is expected to have his entire Milan squad available for Thursday’s European clash. 

The Rossoneri are tipped to name a similar side to the one in the first leg, with a few adjustments at the back. Davide Calabria could start at right-back over Alessandro Florenzi, and Fikayo Tomori is also expected to start, likely in place of Simon Kjaer. 

Yacine Adli is in line for a spot in the starting XI alongside Tijjani Reijders in midfield. Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Rafael Leao are expected to start behind Olivier Giroud up front. 

Kick-off is set for 17.45 GMT.
