Milan gears up for an offensive on Udine; Pulisic and Gimenez set for attack, Pavlovic back to health
Milan and Udinese Set for Tough Clash at Bluenergy Stadium
Tomorrow evening, AC Milan and Udinese will face off at the Bluenergy Stadium in a highly anticipated Serie A match. This will be the first meeting between the two teams this year, with Milan having won 3-0 away at Udinese during the fourth matchday last season.
Juventus, who are yet to lose a game this season, will start the match against Milan with an extra point due to their upcoming game. However, the Old Lady will not be starting new signing Zaniolo in the Udinese match, as Runjaic believes it's too early for the young midfielder.
Milan, on the other hand, found their first victory against Bologna after a disastrous debut at San Siro against Cremonese. Leao, who has been injured for over a month, will still be out for this match. Maignan, who has been out, is expected to return against Lecce.
Allegri, Milan's coach, has called for consistency ahead of the Udinese match. He warned that if Milan does not maintain their momentum from their two wins, they risk hurting themselves in the Udinese match. Unfortunately, Allegri will not be on the bench for the Udinese match due to a red card suspension. His assistant Landucci will replace him for the Udinese and Lecce matches.
Udinese, under the guidance of Runjaic, urges his players to maintain their good start and aim for more consistency than last year. Runjaic expects a difficult game against Milan, and Allegri agrees, stating that Udinese is a tough test due to their quality players and physical strength.
Juventus is seeking their first home win, having drawn at home against Verona and winning away against Inter and Pisa. Runjaic may give Zaniolo a chance in the Coppa Italia against Palermo to assess the new arrivals. The Portuguese player could return against Napoli in the league on Sunday, September 28.
In the Coppa Italia, the AC Milan team will be coached by someone other than Allegri, but the specific substitute coach is not mentioned in the search results. Milan later redeemed their San Siro loss with a win in Lecce.
The match between Udinese and Milan promises to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams eager to secure a valuable three points. Don't miss it!
