TEAM NEWS
Plzen coach Pavel Vrba has no injury concerns ahead of the visit of seven-times European champions Milan as the Czech side looks to seal a third-placed finish and win a spot in the Europa League.
Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri is set to give players who have not featured regularly this season a run out. Mark van Bommel (knee) and Alex Pato (flu) are both doubtful while Christian Abbiati (shoulder), Alessandro Nesta (pelvis), Philippe Mexès (broken hand) and Mathieu Flamini (knee ligament) are all out. Alberto Aquilani is suspended while Antonio Cassano continues to recover from heart surgery. Rounding off a lengthy injury list is Gennaro Gattuso, who is still out after an eye operation.
MANAGER QUOTES
Pavel Vrba (Plzen): "We are up against tough opponents, but I believe it will be a happy ending and we will be playing in Europe after Christmas. We would like to play more attacking football, but we are all aware of what is required so we won't take any risks tomorrow."
Massimiliano Allegri (Milan): "From a psychological point of view, our players are well prepared for such games. We will give a chance to players who have not played for some time, but if needed we will makes change during the match. For some it is a chance to prove how good they are. Others have not played for some time, so it is a chance to get back into the rhythm of playing and getting another taste of the Champions League."
