AC Milan had a shock on the opening day when they were surprisingly beaten by newly-promoted Cremonese in Massimiliano Allegri's first game back in charge of the club. 

They did bounce back on matchday two with a scrappy 2-0 victory over Lecce, but now have the chance to reset back at home as they welcome Bolonga with a whole host of new signings. 

One of those new arrivals is Adrien Rabiot, who moved to Milan following his controversial bust-up with Marseille team-mate Jonathan Rowe, where the pair were involved in a physical altercation. 

As fate would have it, who will Rabiot see on the opposing side come Sunday? None other than Rowe, who has since moved to Bolonga, and both could make their debuts in this one.
