Milan Visits To Cagliari Headquarters, Tonali Doubtful Appears To Strengthen The Team

JAKARTA - AC Milan will play an away match to the Sardegna Arena Stadium which is the headquarters of Cagliari. However, in the match for the 30th week of the 2021/2022 Italian League, Sandro Tonali is doubtful.

The AC Milan midfielder has not been confirmed to appear in the match on Sunday, March 20 at 02.30 WIB. Quoted from Italian Football, the Rossoneri's doubts brought Tonali because he was suffering from a fever.

However, the condition of the former Brescia captain will continue to be monitored by the Diavolo Rosso team of doctors.

Although Tonali is doubtful to participate, Milan is believed to still have additional strength from the presence of Olivier Giroud who has recovered and is expected to be a starter in Milan's attack line.

Previously, the French striker had also had a fever for the last few days but is now fit and has been training regularly with the rest of the team.

In addition, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is also predicted to help the team's pounding power. Although in the match against Cagliari later he is not expected to play since the beginning of the match.

The Achilles injury that he experienced made Milan coach Stefano Pioli have to be smart in arranging the starting line. Although in the last two matches against Napoli and Empoli Ibra has also started to be able to play when he was entered in the last minute.

AC Milan are currently trying to widen their lead at the top of the table with closest rivals such as Napoli and Inter Milan. The bet of fate will be played by Stefano Pioli's team when he visits a club from Sardinia, Cagliari.

From that match, Milan is certainly determined to be able to return to picking full points as in the previous two matches. The reason is that Milan is currently still in first position in the standings with a collection of 63 points from 19 wins, six draws, and four defeats.

Their point acquisition is three points adrift of Napoli in the second seat and four points above Inter Milan, which may still be pursued.
