Milan have not started well in the Serie A, and will look to set things right with a strong performance in their Champions League opener against Olympique de Marseille.
Rookie coach Leonardo has come under fire following the club’s 4-0 thrashing in the Derby della Madonnina, and a goalless draw against newly promoted Livorno has done nothing to ease the pressure on the Rossoneri.
A will do wonders to ease the burden of high expectations that currently rests on the shoulders of the Diavoli, while the converse may cause a considerable amount of unrest among the tifosi.
Marseille have three wins and a draw in their last four games against Italian clubs, but will have Bakari Kone and Garry Bocaly missing through injury.
Meanwhile, the Brazilian coach has injuries to deal with as well, since Gennaro Gattuso, Christian Abbiati, Marco Borriello, as well as Davide Di Gennaro will be sidelined following their trip to the Milanese medics.
