Serie A returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Fiorentina take on Stefano Pioli's AC Milan side in an important encounter at the San Siro on Saturday.

Fiorentina are currently in sixth place in the Serie A standings and have been plagued by inconsistency over the course of their campaign. The away side edged Bologna to a narrow 2-1 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this match.
AC Milan, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form so far this season. The Rossoneri were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw by Lecce in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
