AC Milan’s manager Stefano Pioli has left no stone unturned as he fields a full-strength squad in their Europa League Round of 16 clash against Slavia Praha. The likes of Rafael Leao, Olivier Giroud, and Christian Pulisic are set to lead the charge as Milan look to secure a victory in the first leg at San Siro.
In a bid to secure a much-needed trophy this season, Pioli has opted for a strong lineup, with only Tommaso Pobega missing out due to injury. With the attacking prowess of Giroud, Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and Leao, the Rossoneri are determined to make a statement in the Europa League.
Meanwhile, Slavia Praha, who have been in impressive form domestically, pose a tough challenge for Milan. With key players like Stanislav Tecl, Bolu Ogungbayi, Sheriff Sinyan, and David Pech ineligible for the competition, Slavia will look to their top scorer Mojmir Chytil and recent signing David Zima for inspiration.
AC Milan, currently in second place in Serie A, are eyeing a successful European campaign after a strong league performance. Having only suffered one defeat in the competition thus far, they are determined to overcome a resilient Slavia Praha side in this crucial matchup.
With the inclusion of Alessandro Florenzi in the starting lineup and the talented Tijjani Reijnders returning to the midfield, Milan are gearing up for a high-intensity clash at San Siro. The team’s focus and hunger for silverware are evident as they prepare to take on their Czech opponents in what promises to be an enthralling encounter.
As the action unfolds at San Siro, all eyes will be on how Pioli’s men handle the challenge posed by Slavia Praha. With the likes of Brighton and Maccabi Haifa also in action, the Europa League Round of 16 promises to deliver top-class football and intense competition.
