Analysis:

With rivals Inter Milan drawing against Fiorentina in their match last night, A.C Milan knows there is everything to play for when they welcome Catania for this match.

Getting the win boosted their hopes a nd despite b eing third they know they still have a chance at the title and will treat every match as the finals now.

Coach Leonardo is likely to go on the offensive and start with an attacking formation as that which was used against Cagliari. That means we should see the likes of Marco Borriello with Klaas Huntelaar and Ronaldinho starting in attack and behind them there should be the likes of Clarence Seedorf, and further back Andrea Pirlo and Massimo Ambrosini.

At the back will be the biggest headache due to the n umber of injuries Milan has. With Dida in goal, Giuseppe Favalli will once again feature alongside Thiago Silva. Gianluca Zambrotta is preferred to Ignazio Abate, and Luca Antonini should start at left back. Daniele Bonera will return to the bench.

As for the visitors Catania, they are currently in high confidence. Their derby win over Palermo will be the highlight of their season and it must not be forgotten that they have also beaten Inter and Fiorentina this season. They have lost just once in five games and are just a few points away from survival.

They paid the price for the win over Palermo as thbey will be missing Jorge Martinez who sustained an injury. Mariano Izco is likely to replace him from his usual position in midfield. Ezequiel Carboni returns to central midfield with Marco Biagianti moving to the left side and Adrian Ricchiuti starting on the right of midfield.

Catania has to make changes at the back as Matias Silvestre is suspended in defence. Nicolas Spolli is mostl likely to join Christian Terlizzi in the middle and Alessandro Potenza looks set to replace Pablo Alvarez in the right-back position.

Take A.C Milan to win and give the handicap of 1 1/4 away here.

Cheers and good luck,
