The credentials of a new-look AC Milan side will be tested severely in October, which sees Vincenzo Montella's men face Roma and Inter before Leonardo Bonucci renews acquaintances with Juventus.

Milan have enjoyed a big-spending transfer window, with the likes of Lucas Biglia and Andre Silva joining the team alongside the headline addition of Italy centre-back Bonucci, who left the champions for San Siro this month.

Bonucci will face his former team-mates on October 29, but not before Milan host last year's runners-up Roma and take on arch-rivals Inter, with games against Genoa and Chievo also preceding the visit of Serie A's dominant force.

That run of fixtures follows what looks a manageable start to the new campaign. Milan open the season at Crotone and Lazio figure to be their toughest test in the first six matchdays.

Napoli welcome Milan to the Stadio San Paolo on November 19, with last term's surprise package Atalanta and Fiorentina providing the Rossoneri with a tricky end to the calendar year.

The same two clubs form Milan's opposition for the final fixtures of the season, but a run of games in which they take on Roma, Inter, Juventus and Napoli in the space of seven weeks from February to mid-April looks likely to have a bigger bearing on their hopes of a return to the Champions League.
