Fresh off an emphatic 3-0 win over Juventus, AC Milan travel to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino to take on Torino on Wednesday.
The hosts were held to a 1-1 draw by Hellas Verona last time out and will aim to quickly return to winning ways in Serie A.
Torino failed to pick up successive wins last week as Federico Dimarco leveled the scores three minutes after Mergim Vojvoda opened the scoring in the 85th minute.
Prior to that, Toro had claimed a hard-earned 1-0 win over Parma and were looking to push six points clear of the drop zone.
However, the result brought no change to the shape of the table as Torino remain in 15th place, level on points with Cagliari and one point behind Genoa.
AC Milan, on the other hand, kept their hopes of a top-four finish alive when they claimed an emphatic 3-0 victory over defending champions Juventus.
In an entertaining clash, goals from Brahim Diaz, Ante Rebic and Chelsea loanee Fikayo Tomori condemned the Bianconeri to their sixth defeat of the season.
The result saw AC Milan surge into third place on the log, level on points with second-place Atalanta and two points above Napoli.
