Milan look set to stick with a 4-3-3 against Chievo, as Sinisa Mihajlovic has a lack of strikers.
There had been speculation that the Serbian Coach could return to the 4-3-1-2 shape deployed in pre-season for tonight’s match, and he has admitted he wants to play a 4-4-2.
However, Gazzetta dello Sport and Tuttosport report that with Mario Balotelli, M’Baye Niang and Jeremy Menez still out with injury, a front-three will be preferred.
