AC Milan vs. Zenit St. Petersburg: Preview and TV schedule

Milan have nothing to play for, having guaranteed a second-placed finish in Group C, but Zenit St. Petersburg are level on points with Anderlecht and will fight it out for a Europa League spot. The Russians can secure third place with a win, having the better head-to-head record.

Milan are likely to field a rested team, with Djamel Mesbah and Bojan Krkic both likely to start, although Massimiliano Allegri has stated his intention to win the game in order to put a good run of results together.

Zenit will field a full-strength side, with Hulk, Aleksandr Kerzhakov and Aleksandr Bukharov likely to be the starting front three. Despite the advantage, Luciano Spalletti commented on the difficulty of playing away from home and suggested Allegri had "proved to be a capable coach", with Milan's form having improved in recent weeks.
