Milan hosts Roma at "San Siro" in the derby of week 18 of the Italian Serie-A championship. These two teams are going through a not so good period of results until they are ranked in the 8th and 10th positions.
Milan coach Paulo Fonseca is dealing with Milan's attacking selection crisis, so Alex Jimenez is likely to start at left-back against Paulo Dybala's Roma.
Rafael Leao is also on the treatment table and the same is true for Noah Okafor, Yunus Musah, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Alessandro Florenzi.
Theo Hernandez will return to the lineup after starting the last two games on the bench. Filippo Terracciano will start again in central midfield and Jimenez will be used as a left winger.
Bryan Cristante is the only player unavailable for Roma and Giallorossi coach Claudio Ranieri appears to have only one doubt, which is whether to start with Stephan El Shaaraëy in attack or Niccolò Pisilli as the third central midfielder.Milan vs Roma - possible formations
Milan (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Emerson Royal, Thiaë, Gabbia, Theo Hernandez; Terracciano, Fofana; Chukeueze, Reijnders, Jimenez; Morata.
