This week brings another round of Serie A games, with Torino taking on AC Milan’s Stefano Pioli’s team in an important match at the San Siro on Friday. Torino, which is seventh in the Serie A standings, has performed above their weight thus far this season.
In last week’s crucial 1-0 victory over Udinese, the away team will attempt to achieve a similar outcome in this matchup. Despite having an impressive team this season, AC Milan has deceived the Serie A so far. To reclaim their spot in the top four, the Rossoneri will need to play their hearts out after a shocking slump over the past month.
On the other hand, AC Milan is currently in sixth place in the league table and has largely failed to live up to expectations this season. In their previous match, the Rossoneri suffered a devastating 1-0 defeat at the hands of archrivals Inter Milan. This week, they will require to bounce.

Milan vs Torino Team news :
It is anticipated that Milan will stick with their new 3-5-2 formation on Friday following the uncharacteristic tactical adjustment made by Stefano Pioli the previous time out. However, they will still be without a number of important men.
Goalkeeper Mike Maignan (calf), first-choice selection Ismael Bennacer (thigh), and goalkeeper Fikayo Tomori (hip) are all out with injuries. Instead, they will try to be ready for the first leg against Tottenham.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has finally returned to training after an ACL injury that kept him out for eight months. However, the 41-year-old will most likely be on the bench after scoring in a practice match during the week.
Given Divock Origi’s poor performance in the derby, Rafael Leao could be promoted from the bench to partner Olivier Giroud up front in his likely absence. Leao averaged 3.6 shots per game before the World Cup, but since returning from Qatar, that rate has dropped to 1.3, and he has been replaced.
In the meantime, Antonio Sanabria, Demba Seck, and back-to-back goalscorer Yann Karamoh are all in contention to start in place of Torino’s former Milan striker Pietro Pellegri, who is expected to miss out on a return to the San Siro because of a problem with his thigh.
Samuele Ricci recently suffered a calf injury, keeping him out until next month. Valentino Lazaro and David Zima (both knee injuries) will be out for longer. Ronaldo Vieira, a January signing, might take Ricci’s place in the middle of the field. Ivan Juric should keep the same back three because Zima won’t be back soon.
