The current round of Serie A matches will feature the Milan derby, which is a crucial game for Fonseca. If there is a heavy defeat, he could be at risk of losing his job. According to Sky Sport Italia, Fonseca has decided to change tactics from a 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2 formation with two strikers.
Both new center-forward signings from the summer transfer window, Morata and Abraham, will start together. However, key central defender Pavlovic, midfielder Kante, and captain Calabria will all miss out due to muscle injuries. Emerson and Gabbia will enter the starting lineup.
New Formation (4-4-2)
Goalkeeper: Maignan
Defenders: Emerson, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo
Midfielders: Pulisic, Fofana, Rendrs, Leao
Forwards: Morata, Abraham
