This will be a difficult match. Spal is fighting for survival.

Start like this:
Donna
Conti-Kjaer-Romagnoli-Theo
Benny- Kessie
Saelemakers-Paqueta-Hakanista
Rebic

Yes we shouldn't underestimate them but also we might want to rest some players. After this we play against Lazio, ladri and Napoli.

I hope we manage to score early for a change, rest some players, play some good ol cantenacio and get the 3 points.

Literally every time Milan go catenaccio after taking an early lead they end up drawing or losing the game.

Im just watching these games to see who can be good for next season

Hakan looks great in the last few games, but we need to see if we can:

1- Be consistent

2- Get into the game and impact quickly when coming in as a sub

I still dont think we will ever achieve anything playing both hakan and paqueta together

Should still be winnable with this lineup. Leao and Paqueta need to perform though. Kessie will be missed and not entirely sold on Krunic his last few appearances. Fine as a backup though.

Well hopefully they manage to do it properly for once.

A win here is a must to put pressure on Napoli who face Atalanta tomorrow.

Great to see Leao starting. Needs a good outing more than anyone else.

Krunic is ok but im really not confident with him being our first CM/DM sub off the bench long term

Bottom of the table SPAL, has only beaten Milan once in 37 Serie A games. Need another big win today. I'm excited. Leao hat-trick.

No Leao on a game where he could really use it to build confidence and also rest someone else.

SPAL have been proven to be a handful for some of the top teams this season winning against both Napoli and Atalanta. Winning is crucial and Leao hasn't performed well enough to claim a starting spot.

Surprised Samu is starting so soon after the previous match, he looked exhausted

Hopefully there are faster subs

Yeah, specially since we play again at the weekend where I'd figure Samu would be better suited to start refreshed.
