Okay, so today I looked into the lineups for the AC Milan vs. ACF Fiorentina match. It’s always interesting to see what formations and players the coaches decide to go with, you know?
First off, I started by checking out some predictions and rumors online. There were a few different sources, but they mostly agreed on a 4-2-3-1 formation for AC Milan. I saw some familiar names popping up, like Mike Maignan in goal and Theo Hernandez at left-back. These guys are solid, always putting in a good shift.
Then, I dug a bit deeper to find the confirmed lineup for AC Milan. Turns out, the rumors were pretty spot on. Mike Maignan was indeed starting as the goalkeeper. The defense had Emerson Royal, Matteo Gabbia, Fikayo Tomori, and Theo Hernandez. In the midfield, they went with Youssouf Fofana and Tijjani Reijnders, and up front, Christian Pulisic, Alvaro Morata were the attacking.

- Goalkeeper: Mike Maignan

For Fiorentina, the probable lineup was also a 4-2-3-1. I noticed Terracciano was the likely goalkeeper. The defense seemed to consist of Dodo, Milenkovic, Igor, and Biraghi. Midfield was Amrabat and Mandragora. And their attack had Gonzalez, Bonaventura up front.

After getting the lineups sorted, I looked up some past matches between these two teams. Apparently, Inter Milan and Fiorentina have played each other 45 times since 2004. Inter Milan has won 28 of those games, Fiorentina has won 8, and they’ve drawn 9 times. That’s a pretty big difference in wins!
Oh, and I also found out that the referee for this match was going to be Luca Pairetto. It said he’s officiated 124 matches in Italy’s top division. Experienced guy, it seems.
So yeah, that’s pretty much what I did today regarding the AC Milan vs. ACF Fiorentina match. It was interesting to gather all this info and see how the teams were planning to face each other.
