Catania: Andujar; Augustyn (Ricchiuti 66), Silvestre, Spolli, Capuano; Carboni (Pesce 45); Ledesma, Sciacca (Morimoto 82), Gomez, Mascara; Maxi Lopez

Milan: Abbiati; Bonera, Yepes, Thiago Silva, Antonini; Ambrosini (Jankulovski 75), Van Bommel, Merkel (Emanuelson 46); Robinho; Ibrahimovic, Cassano (Oddo 59)


The Rossoneri were struck with more injury woes, as Abate ruled out. Still, Allegri fielded a 4-3-1-2, with Abbiati in goal behind Antonini, Thiago Silva, Yepes, and Bonera who played RB instead of the injured Abate. In midfield, Van Bommel started once more, alongside Ambrosini and young Alexander Merkel, whilst a familiar 3 of Robinho, Cassano and Ibrahimovic formed the attack.
