last game we really struggled at home versus Sassuolo.. we got a penalty (which we scored) + a red card to their gk that's basically the worst thing that can happen in a match and still struggled.
hopefully we'll be able to close the game by the 55-60th minute mark this time. We gave Alessandria too much space when they attacked us last game and I hope we are more concrete. Montolivo returns after not playing for two games, Berto was rested during the coppa but I prefer Kucka to start.
One of Menez/Balo will partner Bacca, it's a tough decision. Menez had two very good finishes last game but didn't do much else, Balo didn't have the greatest of games but sacrificed more for the team. Which of two seem more fit to play for longer? I say Balotelli at the moment. I'd start with Mario for 60 minutes and give Menez 30.
Alex-Romagnoli back at the back, Zapata has done well in the last three games but it's time to go back to our best CB pairing. Abate is suspended for this one so De Sciglio will start so probably no clean sheet unless Gigio covers up for Mattia's mess.
Donnarumma made his debut in that game.
