Filippo Inzaghi is thinking to change the formation again and captain Riccardo Montolivo is ready to return to the midfield alongside De Jong and one of Poli and Bonaventura.

Filippo Inzaghi has yet to field the same XI this season (in 23 games) and has changed the tactical set-up several times, most recently using 4-4-2.

However, according to Sky Italia’s reporter Peppe Di Stefano, coach Inzaghi tried the 4-3-1-2 system in today’s training at Milanello so it’s possible to see the pair of January signings Mattia Destro and Alessio Cerci leading the attack and one of Jeremy Menez and Keisuke Honda playing behind them.

Sky also reports that Montolivo and Nigel De Jong will be playing in midfield together with Giacomo Bonaventura (his shoulder is not 100% yet) or Andrea Poli fielded with them. Alex, who underwent surgery earlier this week after breaking his nose against Empoli, trained normally today and according to the Milan Channel he could be called-up for the match on Sunday (15:00 CET).

Meanwhile, with Diego Lopez suspended and Michael Agazzi injured, the three goalkeepers that will be called-up against Cesena are said to be Abbiati, Gori and the 15-year-old Gianluigi Donnarumma.
