AC Milan could hand debuts to midfielders Adel Taarabt and Michael Essien against Rafael Benitez's Napoli.Taarabt joined on loan from Championship side QPR after Essien's permanent switch from Chelsea.
New Milan boss Clarence Seedorf said: "Taarabt is here and available for selection.
"He has a lot of talent and we have to pull that out of him. We hope to see him sooner rather than later. Essien is a guarantee with what he can give."
Napoli are in third place in the table but have faded from the title hunt, sitting 15 points behind leaders Juventus.
Milan sit 10th in the table and replaced Massimiliano Allegri with Seedorf last month.
The Dutchman said: "We'll be up against a big team who have had difficulties with results but not with the way they play.
"They have a lot of good players and I expect them to be in form. It's an important game tomorrow to see what point we're at.
"We'll be looking for the win. Benitez is one of football's greats. He's well prepared and I respect him a lot. They'll give everything tomorrow."
