Preview: Genoa vs. AC Milan

Sports Mole previews the match in Serie A between Genoa and AC Milan.

AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi will take his side to Genoa on Sunday having seen his players record their first win in six matches last weekend.

The 2-0 victory over Udinese moved the Rossoneri up to sixth place in the Serie A table, just two points away from Napoli in third.

Inzaghi will be without midfielder Michael Essien after the former Chelsea midfielder was dismissed at San Siro last week.

Andrea Poli could replace Essien but the rest of the team is likely to be unchanged, with Fernando Torres remaining on the bench after failing to feature last week.

Genoa host Milan having proven to be one of the stand-out teams of the campaign so far, but defeat to Sunday's opponents could see them fall from fourth to seventh.

The Rossoblu suffered their first loss in 10 games in the Coppa Italia in midweek but Gian Piero Gasperini made numerous changes to the lineup that has been impressing in Serie A.

Mattia Perin, Luca Antonelli and Diego Perotti should all return after being rested but Alessandro Matri will miss out against his parent club.
