Milan – Sassuolo: Preview and Highest Odds

Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns to the Milan squad on Wednesday, after serving a suspension last week, so should replace Rafael Leao at centre-forward. While defender Davide Calabria and young forward Daniel Maldini are set to miss out again for the Rossoneri, coach Stefano Pioli has no other injury concerns, as Alessio Romagnoli returned to the bench last time out. In Calabria’s continued absence, Diogo Dalot will hope to unseat Pierre Kalulu at right-back, with Ismael Bennacer again having to fend off the claims of Sandro Tonali for a role in central midfield. Though striker Francesco Caputo could still remain sidelined for Sassuolo – along with Kaan Ayhan (COVID-19) and long-term injury victim Filippo Romagna – star man Domenico Berardi returned to spectacular effect at half-time on Saturday and can now start. Primavera product Giacomo Raspadori should continue up front for the visitors, as Caputo misses out, while Italy international Manuel Locatelli is expected to come back into the XI for Pedro Obiang.
