Stefano Pioli continues to deal with an epic injury crisis, as Theo Hernandez and Brahim Diaz are still COVID-positive, with Franck Kessie joining Ante Rebic, Mike Maignan, Alessandro Florenzi, Junior Messias and Pietro Pellegri on the treatment table.

It means Ibrahimovic gets his first start of the season after a couple of substitute appearances, supported by Rade Krunic and Rafael Leao.

Bologna are capable of beating Lazio 3-0 here, but then drawing 1-1 away to 10-man Udinese, although there were protests at the equaliser for a possible foul on the goalkeeper.

Kevin Bonifazi and Michael Kingsley are out of action, but Gary Medel returns to the defence.

Marko Arnautovic is supported once again by Musa Barrow and Roberto Soriano.

Bologna: Skorupski; Soumaoro, Medel, Theate; De Silvestri, Dominguez, Svanberg, Hickey; Soriano, Barrow; Arnautovic

Milan: Tatarusanu; Calabria, Tomori, Kjaer, Ballo-Toure; Tonali, Bennacer; Castillejo, Krunic, Leao; Ibrahimovic
