AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has named his starting line-up for the game against Torino tonight, and there are a few changes from the team that beat Cagliari last weekend.

This could be Pioli’s penultimate match in charge of Milan and the team will be hoping to give the fans one final away performance to cheer this season, and to build on the 5-1 win from last Saturday night.

Marco Sportiello has been named in goal with the defensive department made up of Pierre Kalulu, Malick Thiaw, Fikayo Tomori and Filippo Terracciano from right to left.

The midfield three is Yunus Musah, Tijjani Reijnders and Ismael Bennacer, while Christian Pulisic, Luka Jovic and Noah Okafor will make up the attacking trident in what looks like a 4-3-3.

Mike Maignan has been named on the bench but will not be risked from the start after an adductor injury. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has a hamstring issue and Theo Hernandez is out having battled flu symptoms during the week. In addition to those two absences, Matteo Gabbia is suspended.

Official Milan XI (4-3-3): Sportiello; Kalulu, Thiaw, Tomori, Terracciano; Musah, Reijnders, Bennacer; Pulisic, Jovic, Okafor.

Bench: Maignan, Mirante; Bartesaghi, Calabria, Caldara, Florenzi; Adli, Pobega, Zeroli; Giroud, Leão.

Official Torino XI (3-4-1-2): Milinković-Savić; Tameze, Buongiorno, Masina; Bellanova, Linetty, Ilić, Rodríguez; Ricci; Pellegri, Zapata.

Bench: Gemello, Popa; Dellavalle, Djidji, Lovato, Savva, Sazonov; Ciammaglichella, Lazaro, Silva Pertinhes, Vojvoda; Kabić, Okereke, Sanabria.
