The Rossoneri are currently seventh in the Serie A table, but could qualify for the Europa League directly if they beat Juventus in Wednesday’s Coppa Italia Final.
If they lose, then fifth, sixth and seventh will be valid for Europe, giving them another opportunity.
There’s a boost for Coach Gennaro Gattuso, who has defender Romagnoli back from injury and it’ll be an important test of his fitness ahead of that Juve showdown at the Stadio Olimpico.
Lucas Biglia and Andrea Conti are still out of action, while Patrick Cutrone is preferred to Nikola Kalinic and Andre Silva in attack, despite the teenager not finding the net for six rounds.
Verona are practically in Serie B after their home defeat to SPAL, as they sit seven points off safety with only three rounds to play.
They were only promoted a year ago, finishing second in Serie B behind SPAL, and should join Benevento by going straight back down.
Moise Kean is still not fully fit, joined on the treatment table by Mattia Valoti and Vukovic.
Alessio Cerci leads the way against his old club, flanked by Ryder Matos and Bruno Petkovic.
These sides have already met twice this season, as Milan knocked Hellas out of the Coppa Italia only to then lose 3-0 in league competition a few days later.
Hellas have never conquered San Siro in Serie A, managing 15 defeats and 11 draws.
