AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi admitted that his side's 3-1 win over Parma was imperative after three straight Serie A defeats.
Christian Zaccardo added to Jeremy Menez's brace at the San Siro, and while Inzaghi wants to see performances improve in future, he said that the victory was crucial on Sunday.
He told reporters after the game: "We wanted this victory at all costs, I think it is deserved and now we hope to get some players back for Saturday.
"We then also hope to play a little better as time goes on. When you are without seven or eight first choice players and coming off a difficult period, it becomes tricky."
Milan meet Serie A leaders Juventus next week.
