Carlo Ancelotti is breathing a sigh of relief with the news that Clarence Seedorf will be fit for Milans crunch match against Roma tomorrow.
With the race for Champions League qualification finely poised, Milan know that they need to return from Rome with something to show for their efforts.
Fiorentina host Genoa on Sunday and it is essential that the Diavolo dont allow the Tuscans to extend their single-point advantage in fourth place.
Seedorf has been a costly absentee for Ancelotti since picking up a thigh injury against Lazio at the start of the month and was sorely missed during Milans Champions League clash with Arsenal.
Now, the Dutchman is set to start at the Stadio Olimpico and Ancelotti is expected to return to a Christmas Tree formation.
The news will come as a disappointment to Alberto Gilardino and Yoann Gourcuff with the duo set to sit on the bench in the Eternal City.
