AC Milan face Juventus at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday night hoping to continue our impressive start to the Serie A season.
The Rossoneri have won all three league games thus far, scoring seven goals and conceding just once in the process, but we did fall to our first defeat of the campaign in midweek against Liverpool in the Champions League.

With that in mind, it’s hoped that the players react positively after that setback on what was a difficult night at Anfield, and Stefano Pioli could make a couple of tweaks to his line up.
Tonali to return to XI
Ismael Bennacer struggled on Wednesday night, and while the pace and tempo of the game was an issue in itself, it didn’t look as though he was fully fit yet as he struggled to keep up.
In turn, Sandro Tonali will likely come back into the side to replace him next to Franck Kessie, and that could be the only change made by the Milan boss.
Ante Rebic has been in fine form in the past two games, scoring one goal and providing two assists while being generally influential in our attacking play and most dangerous moments.
Olivier Giroud is available again and came off the bench in midweek, but it would be harsh on Rebic to lose his place in the side given his impact and so it’s hoped that Pioli continues to show faith in him and he builds on his recent form.
The only other potential change comes in defence if Pioli considers resting Simon Kjaer again with Alessio Romagnoli impressing against Lazio last weekend, but that aside, the Milan boss might be looking for consistency, stability and familiarity in his side as we look to make it back-to-back wins away from home against the Bianconeri.
