Preview: AC Milan vs. Fiorentina

Struggling AC Milan take on Fiorentina on Saturday looking to improve their form and start working their way up the Serie A table.

The hosts have won three of their opening five games at home, but were pegged back by Lazio to draw 1-1 on Wednesday night.

Viola have been impressive so far, particularly away from home, although overall they have won just two of their last six league games.

Milan will have to continue to make do without Stephan El Shaarawy and Matias Silvestre, although Christian Abbiati could return to the starting lineup.

For Fiorentina Gonzalo Rodriguez could return to the XI following his suspension and the impressive Joaquin is expected to keep his place.
