Roma-Milan official lineups: predicted scorers, cautions and marksmen for the challenge scheduled at San Siro. Here are the latest tips.
The classic match that can be worth a season. Everything is ready at for the Europa League quarterfinal return match between Roma and AC Milan. After the Giallorossi’s victory in the first leg, the Rossoneri are called to the classic perfect game to come out on top in a double-header that promises to be tough. The signs of growth shown by Dybala and his teammates in recent months, however, are a calling card that Pioli’s side cannot overlook. They will start from the goal scored by Mancini and a first leg match that left interesting technical-tactical cues, but also an absolutely open result. Let’s take a look at the choices of the two coaches:
ROMA (4-3-3): Svilar, Celik, Mancini, Smalling, Spinazzola, Bove, Paredes, Pellegrini, El Shaarawy, Dybala, Lukaku
MILAN (4-3-3): Maignan; Calabria, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Musah, Bennacer; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Giroud.
Roma-Milan, the scorers prediction
There is a Roma with Dybala and a Roma without Dybala. The Argentine striker is probably the only irreplaceable player in De Rossi’s roster. For quality, technique and ability to make an impact even from the bench. The number 21 wants to load the team on his shoulders at a crucial moment of the season. With Milan he has an open account now since his Juve days. Looking for a noteworthy seal in the Europa League knockout stage, the Roma striker should not disappoint. A designated penalty taker, Dybala has plenty of chances to net at least one goal. Perhaps with that velvety left-footed shot that has characterized his career; Milan proved to suffer a lot from the plays of the “Joya,” who can light up in the three-quarter and find space to hurt Maignan. The Dybala scorer option is by no means a utopia. Far from it.
Probable cautions and shooters for Roma-Milan
In the first leg match he was probably one of the best on the field for self-sacrifice, work in the two phases and spirit of sacrifice. Proposed once again on the right lane, El Shaarawy should repay De Rossi with another strong performance, perhaps enhanced by at least one conclusion in Maignan’s goal mirror. Among the possible marksmen also heats up the candidacy of Pellegrini, who has returned to lay down the law with quality and personality.
Watch out for loose balls. Logic would like to give confidence once again to Gianluca Mancini. However, growing in condition, Chris Smalling could also make himself dangerous in set-piece situations. Taking advantage of some distraction in Pioli’s defensive department, which is not always perfect in marking, it is not ruled out that the experienced Roma center back could warm Maignan’s gloves at least once. For its part, Milan wants to play its chances. We will hardly see the dribbling errors of the first leg. The Rossoneri have the quality to turn the game around at any moment. The ballistic talents of quali Pulisic, Loftus Cheek and Theo Hernandez, for example, could lead to important conclusions in Svilar’s mirror. These are three options in shooter optics that should definitely be considered.
Finally, they risk yellow cards Bove and Mancini on the one hand; in Milan, on the other hand, Bennacer and Calabria could end up in Marciniak’s notebook.
