Pippo Inzaghi took some of the immediate pressure off his bench with last week’s strained 2-0 win over Cesena.

It was secured by Giacomo Bonaventura and a last-minute Giampaolo Pazzini penalty.

Diego Lopez, Gabriel Paletta and Philippe Mexes were suspended for that game and now return to the fold, in the case of Mexes at the end of a four-round ban for getting Lazio captain Stefano Mauri in a headlock.

The injury list is still extensive, missing Mattia De Sciglio, Stephan El Shaarawy, Ignazio Abate, Cristian Zapata, Pablo Armero, Cristian Zaccardo, Adil Rami and Hachim Mastour.

There is still no room in the starting XI for Alessio Cerci, despite his girlfriend’s public protests.

Chievo are fresh from a deeply disappointing 3-0 defeat to Empoli in what could be a costly relegation dogfight.

Ruben Botta is suspended, while Nicolas Frey is out injured.

It is a very special game for Alberto Paloschi, who grew up in the Milan youth academy and always said his idol was Inzaghi.

However, Paloschi is benched in favour of veterans Sergio Pellissier and Riccardo Meggiorini.

The Rossoneri are without an away victory since October 19, but are unbeaten home or away against Chievo since a 2-1 result here in December 2005.

Chievo: Bizzarri; Mattiello, Cesar, Dainelli, Zukanovic; Schelotto, Mattiello, Izco, Hemetaj, Birsa; Meggiorini, Pellissier

Chievo bench: Bardi, Seculin, Gamberini, Radovanovic, Pozzi, Christiansen, Vajushi, Cofie, Fetfatzidis, Sardo, Biraghi, Paloschi
