AC Milan take on Catania in 'must-win' clash

Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti will be sleeping a lot easier if the Rossoneri can turn it on against Catania this weekend.

Early season favourites to take out the Scudetto, Milan needs three points to keep in touch with Inter at the top of the table.

Last week's 3-1 loss to Palermo must have hurt the club and a wounded AC Milan side will be out to avenge that loss at the Stadio Meazza.

The return of Kaka buoys the Rossoneri's hopes as Alessandro Nesta will be sorely missed.

Catania coach Walter Zenga must watch from the stands after insulting a referee which may affect his team who dropped form, coming off a loss to Sampdoria and a draw with Lecce.

Andriy Shevchenko's return to the scoresheet in the Uefa Cup will do wonders for his confidence and paired with Ronaldinho could make for an entertaining battle.
