Milan Skriniar - Absent versus Fiorentina Skriniar (back) won't be available for Saturday's match against Fiorentina, coach Simone Inzaghi announced.

Impact Dimarco wasn't outright ruled out, as he'll be further assessed in the final two practices before the game, but he's trending in the wrong direction and is a long shot to see minutes even should he recover enough to be an option. Robin Gosens recently returned to full training and should get the start on the left flank.
