The full picture

AC Milan is set to face Udinese on Sunday, seeking to break into Serie A's top four with maximum points, after a mixed run of results. The team remains unbeaten in their first seven Serie A matches but suffered a 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth in their last European outing. Milan's head coach is Rúben Amorim. The match is scheduled for 8:45pm BST.

Milan is dealing with several injuries and absences ahead of the match. Adrien Rabiot is out due to calf fatigue, while Diego Moreira and Mario Gila have been left out because of hamstring and ankle problems. Samuel Chukwueze is expected to be out for at least two months with a hip issue.

Despite the injury concerns, Milan has some positive news regarding their front three. Gonçalo Ramos has resumed full training and is likely to start as the central striker, alongside Christian Pulisic and Omari Hutchinson. A possible starting XI has been predicted, featuring Maignan in goal and Loftus-Cheek in midfield.

How we label and update stories

Source context

AC Milan will look to break into the Serie A’s top four by taking maximum points when they travel to face Udinese on Sunday in their upcoming league fixture. The Rossoneri arrive with a mixed and unpredictable stretch of results. They are still unbeaten after their first seven Serie A matches, with their latest outing producing an exciting 3-2 win against Atalanta after they had drawn 1-1 away at Sassuolo. Yet their European form under head coach Rúben Amorim has been far less stable. After an impressive 4-0 triumph on the road against Salzburg, Milan suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth in midweek, raising concerns about their defensive frailties.
