Milan

Milan

Monza and AC Milan, the two Silvio Berlusconi’s clubs, face each other at Brianteo in a highly-anticipated Serie A game. Monza failed to spoil Atalanta’s party in Bergamo on Wednesday evening and they face yet another tough challenges against the Rossoneri. Towering striker Milan Djuric is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while midfielder Warren Bondo is back from suspension. The likes of Birindelli, Cragno, Petagna, Gagliardini, and Sensi should miss out with injuries.

Paulo Fonseca’s men, on the other hand, aim to recover from a heart-breaking loss to Napoli. As Monza have selection worries ahead of Saturday’s game, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting side. Both Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic return to the starting XI, which is yet another reason why away win should be considered. The likes of Matteo Gabbia, Tammy Abraham, Ismael Bennacer, and Alessandro Florenzi, though, are out of contention with injuries.

Highlighted Player (Christian Pulisic):

Christian Pulisic

Christian Pulisic is an American professional footballer who plays in the English Premier League with Chelsea. Born in Pennsylvania on the 18th of September, 1998, the talented midfielder joined Brackley Town’s youth setup in 2005. He then went on to feature for Michigan Rush and PA classics before being recruited by Bundesliga outfit Borrusia Dortmund in February 2015.

Impressed with the rate of his progression at their academy, BVB integrated the teenager into their first team over the winter break. On the 30th of January, 2015, Pulisic made his professional debut at the age of 17, coming on as a substitute in Dortmund’s 2-0 home win against Ingolstadt in the league. He then went on to score his first professional goal three months later in a 3-0 league win over Hamburger SV. Before joining English club Chelsea in 2018, Pulisic played a total of 4 seasons at Dortmund, three of which were as a full-time player and the last one on loan from the Blues.

The 21-year-old is now back at Chelsea for the 19/20 season and is currently on a contract that expires in 2024. Pulisic’s club career honors include winning the 16/17 DFB Pokal with Dortmund. Additionally, Pulisic initially represented the USA at the under-15 and under-17 level before getting called up to the senior squad. He made his senior debut on the 29th of March,2016, as a substitute in USA’s 4-0 thumping of Guatemala in the CONCACAF World cup qualifiers.

Highlighted Team (Milan):

Milan

AC Milan are regarded as one of the biggest club in Italy. The Rossoneri compete in the Italian Serie A and they have won 18 domestic trophies. Speaking of the club’s European success, Milan have clinched seven Champions League (European Cup) trophies.

Milan were on the verge of beating Liverpool in the 2005 Champions League final, but the Premier League outfit came from three goals behind and eventually won the prestigious trophy on penalties. The Rossoneri play their home games at Stadio San Siro (80,018), the stadium that was opened in 1926. It is well known that Milan’s bitterest rivals are Inter and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals face each other in the Derby della Madonnina.

Milan were founded in 1899 by a lace-maker from England named Herbert Kilpin and a businessman Alfred Edwards. Milan’s home kits are red and black and that is why the team’s nickname is Rossoneri (The Red and Blacks).

The likes of Alessandro Costacurta, Paolo Maldini, Franco Baresi, Roberto Donadoni, Dejan Savicevic, Frank Rijkaard, Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Andrea Pirlo are the most famous footballers who have represented the San Siro outfit.
