This is a must-win game for the Rossoneri, as Coach Marco Giampaolo is already under fire after three defeats in the opening five rounds.

Mattia Caldara is the only absentee, along with suspended Pepe Reina, who was sent off from the bench in Thursday’s game for dissent.
Rafael Leao and Suso should continue to flank Krzysztof Piatek, with a choice between Ismael Bennacer and Lucas Biglia in midfield.
The major doubt regards left-back, where Theo Hernandez can be a little too gung-ho in his attacking for Giampaolo’s tastes, particularly when dealing with a danger man like Chiesa.
This is why Ricardo Rodriguez could return to the starting XI.
As for Fiorentina, they have practically a full squad and Coach Vincenzo Montella can relax a little after finally ending the 18-round winless streak.
That midweek 2-1 victory over Sampdoria provided a huge boost and allowed Chiesa to get his first Serie A goal of the season.
He is again set to start in a 3-5-2 with Franck Ribery, as Dalbert and Pol Lirola retain the wide roles.
Former Milan star Kevin-Prince Boateng is once more set for the bench.
Probable line-ups
Milan (4-3-3): G Donnarumma; Calabria, Musacchio, Romagnoli, Theo Hernandez; Kessie, Bennacer, Calhanoglu; Suso, Piatek, Leao
Fiorentina (3-5-2): Dragowski; Milenkovic, Pezzella, Caceres; Lirola, Pulgar, Badelj, Castrovilli, Dalbert; Ribery, Chiesa
