Description: MIL Vs BOG Fantasy Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: AC Milan strive for consistency this season as the club looks to build on an empathic end to last season

Regular underachievers in the Serie A for a string of seasons, AC Milan look to have finally shunned of their tottering form. Ever since the turn of COVID, the club has been in sensational form, a team torching its way to sixth place in the foregone edition of the league.

Remaining unbeaten in all of their last five outings last term, a run which included some illustrious results, AC Milan ended up sealing their berth in this season’s Europa League qualifiers. And the side began life in the qualifiers with a solid win over Shamrock Rovers, one which puts them on the cusp of cantering into the group stages.

It’s truly been a period of renaissance for the club across the last couple of months. Buoyed by their new found invigoration, the club will be striving for a culture of excellent this time around, one which sees imbed in a place a meaningful winning spree and challenge for a spot in the top four.

MIL Vs BOG Fantasy Probable Winner

Where AC Milan were sensational ever since the restart of last season, Bologna on the other hand just about scampered their way out of the relegation zone. Although they ended up in twelfth spot, the side was a mere twelve points above the drop, a figure which exulted their languid form as a club.

MIL Vs BOG Fantasy Picks

Goal-Keeper

Asked to act as the guardian of a howler of a backline, Lukasz Skorupski (8.5) could have been easily excused for a decline in form. However, he needed no such rescuing with him waging a lone battle for the side to rescue crucial points for the club to ensure their survival.

Defenders

For AC Milan, managing to keep hold of fullback Theo Hernandez (8.5) was hailed as a massive triumph. The defender was exceptional last season, someone who utilised his penchant for marauding into the side’s attacking plays to pull off a bevy of goals and assists.

Having bolstered their defence towards the tail end of last season, we have two more names be inculcated in our setup from AC Milan. Both Simon Kjaer (8.5) and Davide Calabria (8.5) will make a foray into our side, two players bestowed with a well endowed brand of defensive skill set.

Midfielders

Hakan Calhanoglu (9.5) was the pinnacle of AC Milan’s flair filled resurgence in the league last season. The midfielder came alive ever since the league returned, popping with a staggering 9 goals and 9 assists to see him become the first pick from the side.

Where Hakan was crucial in defence, Franck Kessie (8.5) took centrestage in the CDM role. His tenacity saw him provide unstinted support to the side’s defence, with his unbridled tackles and blocks seeing him stamp down on the opposition’s attack.

The only reason Bologna sat way above the relegation zone last season was due to their attack. The side unabedtly kept piling on the goals, all credit to Riccardo Orsolini (10) who had a well rounded 8 goals and 6 assists.

The more defensive minded Nicolas Dominguez (8.5) will be his partner on the day, someone whose expertise in pulling off recoveries and aerial dules will be required in abundance today.

Strikers

Despite only being rolled into the club in January, striker Zlatan Ibrahimov (10) still ended up a neat 10 goals for the side. He alongside top scorer Ante Rebic (10) who has 11 goals and 3 assists completely transformed the side’s attack to give the side the look of such a ruthless machine.

Sampdoria will meanwhile see top scorer in the last season with 9 goals and 5 assists, Musa Barrow (9.5) bring down the curtains on our set of picks for the skirmish.

Captain And Vice-Captain

His 10 goals and 5 assists last season see Zlatan be our captain for today while Hakan is the vice-captain.
