**Davide Bartesaghi spoke to the media just a few minutes ago ahead of Milan-Torino, suggesting that there could be more crosses from him this evening.**
It’s an important game for Milan as their defeat against Lazio last time out allowed Napoli to leapfrog them yesterday. A win is thus needed to restore the order and reclaim second place ahead of the international break, which takes place next week.
Bartesaghi is [**back in the starting eleven**](https://sempremilan.com/official-ac-milan-torino-starting-xis-2025-2026), replacing Pervis Estupinan, and he spoke to DAZN just a few minutes ago (via [MilanNews](https://www.milannews.it/news/bartesaghi-con-fullkrug-avro-la-possibilita-di-mettere-dentro-piu-palloni-611354)). He said that the fact that Niclas Fullkrug is starting means that he can send more crosses into the box.
**What did you work on this week?**
“We have been working in the same way, because the goal is always the same. We have fixed a few things that went a little wrong in the last game.”
**Will anything change with Fullkrug up front?**
“I will have the chance to send more crosses in. We know that each player up front has different qualities, but they are all important. We will see how the match goes today.”
**What is it like dealing with the pressure of the standings, with Napoli having overtaken you?**
“Let’s focus on our own games, not the standings. We have three important points waiting for us, and we hope to get them tonight.”
It remains to be seen if Bartesaghi will be able to link up with Fullkrug, but we all know that the Italian has a good cross on him, and the German loves to find the back of the net with his head.
