Milan will no longer use the three-center-back formation in the first two games, but will be changed to a four-back formation. The two central-backs will be Gabiya and Pavlovic. Allegri has proven that he can make tactical adjustments based on the players' situation and the characteristics of his opponents. Milan will freely switch between four and three defenders in the new season.
The Milan Sports Daily believes that 17-year-old Milan youth training midfielder Christian Komoto will get a starting opportunity. Richie rested in this game. Modric has not participated in Milan's summer training, and Jasari has not transferred to join Milan. In this case, Allegri is preparing to have Komoto serve as Milan's midfield organizer in this game, and Komoto has tried this position in recent days in training.
Milan's left-back Esturpinian introduced this summer came on as a substitute in the last warm-up match, but he seemed a little difficult to defend Flynnon from Liverpool's right. In this warm-up match, Estupinian will start for Milan. This game can test his offensive ability, which is also the advantage of Estupinian.
In addition, some marginal players in Milan are also expected to get opportunities in this game. Okafor has been seen as a redundant player in Milan in the past, but he scored twice in his last match against Liverpool. S-Jimenez is still on vacation. Currently, Okafor is the only genuine striker in Milan. He has the opportunity to continue to prove himself, strive to convince coach Allegri and stay in Milan. Chukueze will also play in this game, but he is more likely to leave the team this summer. It is not ruled out that this will become Chukueze's last game in Milan.
