The Rossoneri had a dismal debut under new Coach Marco Giampaolo, losing 1-0 to Udinese without mustering a single shot on target.
The former Sampdoria boss confessed he was trying to make the players fit his system rather than the other way round and has now made modifications.
Rather than the traditional 4-3-1-2 formation, he uses Suso and Samu Castillejo as support for the lone centre-forward, who surprisingly is not Piatek, but Andre Silva.
It’s a shock, considering Andre Silva is still on sale and his agent has been travelling around Europe trying to find him a new club for €30m after he failed a Monaco medical.
Summer signing Bennacer steps into midfield, flanked by Franck Kessie and Hakan Calhanoglu, dropping Lucas Paqueta and Fabio Borini.
Lucas Biglia, Pepe Reina, Theo Hernandez and Mattia Caldara remain injured.
Brescia won the Serie B Championship last season with Alfredo Donnarumma – no relation to Gianluigi – as Capocannoniere and he scored on his Serie A debut, the 1-0 victory away to Cagliari.
It was a very surprising result, considering how heavily the Sardinians have invested in their squad this summer.
Mario Balotelli won’t face his former club, as he continues the four-match ban left over from Ligue 1, while Emanuele Ndoj and Giangiacomo Magnani are injured.
The big news is the return of Ernesto Torregrossa, who was key to their promotion with 12 goals and 11 assists, combining brilliantly with Donnarumma.
Italy Under-21 international midfielder Sandro Tonali pulls the midfield strings.
