AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has admitted that his side are wary of the threat posed by Roma at the San Siro this evening.
Roma travel to northern Italy tonight desperate for three points to boost their Europa League hopes, while Milan need a win themselves to secure third place and Champions League qualification.
Allegri has conceded that he is yet to decide whether Robinho or Stephan El Shaarawy will partner Mario Balotelli as his side bid for a fourth successive victory in Serie A.
He told reporters at his pre-match press conference: "Roma are always difficult to face and unpredictable.
"We are prepared for them and must be more motivated on the night. We need three points to ensure we don't leave third place to the last round.
"It's not true that El Shaarawy is going through a difficult time. He isn't finding the net recently, but he works hard for the team. Everyone can be substituted, but the lad needs to be left in peace because his performances have all been up to standard. Tomorrow it'll either be him or Robinho starting."
Milan sit third in Serie A at the moment.
