AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim will have to battle a selection crisis as his side take on Udinese away from home tonight.

It was already known that Matteo Gabbia, Alexis Saelemaekers, and Samuel Chukwueze would be out for this one, but things got even worse. As confirmed by Milan on Saturday afternoon, Amorim will also be without the key players Mario Gila, Adrien Rabiot and Diego Moreira.

Udinese vs. AC Milan: Predicted starting XIs

According to this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, Amorim will deploy a 4-3-3 formation that features a front three of Omari Hutchinson, Goncalo Ramos and Christian Pulisic.

The midfield trio will be Yunus Musah and Ardon Jashari flanking Luka Modric. A four-man defence of FIkayo Tomori, Koni De Winter, Strahinja Pavlovic and Davide Bartesaghi is in line to start.

Mike Maignan will be between the posts wearing the armband again, given that the suspension for his red card in Bournemouth only applies in European competitions.

Predicted Milan XI (4-3-3): Maignan; Tomori, De Winter, Pavlovic, Bartesaghi; Musah, Modric, Jashari; Hutchinson, Ramos, Pulisic.

Predicted bench: Torriani, Bouyer, F. Terracciano, Vladimirov, Diawara, Estupinan, Perera, Comotto, Loftus-Cheek, Vos, Cisse, Menon, Ossola, Camarda.

Predicted Udinese XI (3-4-2-1): Okoye; Abankwah, Kabasele, Palma; Vojvoda, Piotrowski, Karlström, Kamara; Chakvetadze, Ekkelenkamp; Davis.

Predicted bench: Padelli, Mrozek, Bertola, Ebosse, Solet, Zanoli, Zarraga, Miller, Lovric, Arizala, Jovanovic, Unai, Zaniolo, Vinciati.
