AC Milan take to the field against Salernitana on Monday, recognising the upshot of a positive result at San Siro in their top-four battle in Serie A.

The Rossoneri lost their last league game at Fiorentina, suffering a 2-1 reverse in Florence, while the side from Salerno played out a goalless encounter with cellar-dwelling Sampdoria.

Players to watch: Divock Origi’s last ten competitive goals arrived after half-time while both of his SA strikes this term were scored at the San Siro.

Salernitana veteran Antonio Candreva might relish a return to the San Siro, where he directly contributed to five goals against Milan while playing for Lazio and Inter (G2, A3).

Hot streak: None of Milan’s last six league matches featured a goal before the 15th minute (W3, L3).
