Manchester United and AC Milan are preparing for a huge battle in the last 16 of the Europa League. Two of the most glorious teams in the history of world football will meet tomorrow (Thursday, 19:55) at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils, who reached the eighth after taking the disappointing third place in the Champions League home stage, then relatively easily surpassing Real Sociedad in the last 32 stage, are expected to face a no-nonsense list of no less than eight players: Paul Pogba, Anthony Martial, Donny Van de Bic, Juan Mata, Phil Jones, Marcus Rashford, Edinson Cavani and David de Haa.
On the other hand, the Milanese also have a long list of players who will not be eligible to take part in the meeting: Hakan Chelhanolo, Ismail Ben Nasser, Mario Mendzukic and Daniel Maldini. In addition to all this, the competence of Ante Ravic and Theo Hernandez is also in doubt. At the same time, the Rossoneri are looking with concern at the condition of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was injured and replaced during the second half of the game against Roma about two weeks ago, and has not played since. The team is making great efforts to train the unfinished star in time for the game.
The estimated composition of Milan: Gianluigi Donaroma; David Calabria, Simone Kier, Alessio Romanioli, Diego Dallo; Sandro Tonali, Frank Cassie, Alexis Salmancars; Brahim Diaz, Samu Castayo and Rafael Lao.
The estimated composition of Manchester United: Dean Henderson; Arun Van Bisaka, Eric Bay, Victor Lindloff, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw; Fred, Scott McTominy, Mason Greenwood; Bruno Fernandez, Daniel James.
