Gennaro Gattuso looks to get one over on former Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti, and in the process secure a first win at Napoli in almost eight years.

The Rossoneri take on last season’s runners-up at the San Paolo tonight, with Ringhio facing his mentor for the first time as a Coach.

Naples hasn’t been a happy hunting ground for the Diavolo though, as they’re winless in Campania since a 1-2 triumph on October 25 2010, a match Gattuso played in.

The Rossoneri have lost four of their last five games at the San Paolo, going down 2-1 to goals from Lorenzo Insigne and Piotr Zielinski in this fixture last year.

Milan’s struggles at Napoli are a fairly recent phenomenon though, and the overall record is finely balanced.

The Partenopei just hold the advantage on home turf with 27 wins to the Rossoneri’s 22 and 21 draws.

In their 70 Serie A meetings in Naples, the hosts have scored 88 goals and conceded 80, with their last clean sheet in this fixture coming in May 2015.
