AC Milan players given two-day break by Stefano Pioli after 0-0 draw with Juventus, report confirms. With the season’s toll, the rest should bring a welcome boost.
Milan maintained their five-point lead over Juventus in the league table thanks to the draw yesterday. Despite fielding a makeshift back four, with Yunus Musah starting as right-back, the team’s ability to keep a clean sheet was particularly impressive under the circumstances.
As reported by MilanNews, Stefano Pioli has rewarded the players with two days off, commending their efforts after the final whistle at Allianz Stadium. This break means that training will resume on Tuesday at Milanello, marking the beginning of preparations for the upcoming Genoa match.
Scheduled for 18:00 CEST on Sunday evening, the game against the Rossoblu holds significance as Milan aims to continue their strong performance. With the team having already matched last season’s league tally, securing second place in the league and a spot in next year’s Supercoppa tournament appears to be within reach.
Following their suspension against Juventus, Theo Hernandez and Fikayo Tomori will return to the lineup for the upcoming match. However, Davide Calabria still has one game left to sit out due to a two-game ban.
