Serie A returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as AC Milan lock horns with Jose Mourinho's AS Roma side in an important encounter at the San Siro on Sunday.

AC Milan, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form this season. The Rossoneri slumped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Atalanta in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
