New Milan signings Santiago Gimenez and Joao Felix are expected to go on the bench in a Coppa Italia quarter-final meeting with Roma at San Siro, while Paulo Dybala and Artem Dovbyk will start for the Giallorossi.
It kicks off at 21:00 CET (20:00 GMT) at San Siro this evening. The winner will meet Inter or Lazio.
Milan coach Sergio Conceiçao is expected to pick the same starting XI from last week’s derby against Inter adding Youssouf Fofana, who returns to action after serving a one-game ban in Serie A.
Alessandro Florenzi, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Emerson Royal and new signing Warren Bondo are not available for the Rossoneri.
Gianluca Mancini is the only Giallorossi player unavailable. The Italian defender is serving a two-match ban in Coppa Italia.
Claudio Ranieri rotated his Roma squad in the latest Serie A match against Napoli, so many regular starters, including Dybala, Dovbyk, and Alexis Saelemaekers, will return to the Giallorossi XI this evening.
