Serie A: Cagliari vs. Milan – probable line-ups and where to watch on TV
Rafael Leao will lead the Milan attack in an away Serie A match at Cagliari, while Christian Pulisic will start on the bench.
It kicks off at 20:45 CET (19:45 GMT) at the Unipol Domus in Cagliari, and it’s the first game of the year in Serie A.
The Rossoneri must cope without Santiago Gimenez and Christopher Nkunku, while Pulisic is not fully fit and will start on the bench.
New signing Niclas Fullkrug has officially completed his move to Milan this morning, but will be available from the bench tonight.
Leao returns to action after an injury and will start as a sole striker with Ruben Loftus-Cheek acting as an attacking midfielder.
Cagliari are without Andrea Belotti, Ze Pedro, Mattia Felici and Michael Folorunsho, but Turkish forward Semih Kılıçsoy has scored two consecutive goals and will lead the Sardinians’ attack with Sebatiano Esposito expected to play as a left winger.
