Inter Milan coach Claudio Ranieri has called for more goals from his team ahead of Saturday's clash with Fiorentina at the San Siro.
Struggling Inter, 15th in the standings, slumped to a 2-1 home defeat to CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Wednesday, following on from a weekend home loss against Udinese.
"The trouble is we're not scoring enough goals," the Italian told reporters on Friday. "I can't criticise the squad for anything else. With the help of the fans, our strikers can break their bad patch."
Mid-table Fiorentina will be missing Italy midfielder Riccardo Montolivo for Saturday's trip to Inter Milan after he pulled up with a thigh strain in training on Thursday.
"Tests showed evidence of a muscle strain," read a statement on the club's website. "The prognosis for a return to sporting activity is 7-10 days."
Montolivo, who handed in a transfer request at the start of the season, was instrumental in the Viola's 3-0 win over Roma last Sunday, coach Delio Rossi's first win in charge.
Leaders Juventus will be without striker Mirko Vucinic for around three weeks after tests revealed the Montenegrin had strained a muscle in Sunday's 2-0 win over Cesena.
The striker misses Monday's clash against his former side Roma at the Stadio Olimpico.
"I'm doing fine," Osvaldo told Gazzetta dello Sport. "I'm playing for Roma, so it can't be better."
Second-placed AC Milan expect to welcome back influential midfielder Mark van Bommel for Sunday's trip to struggling Bologna.
Lazio striker Miroslav Klose is expected to recover from an ankle injury for Saturday's trip to bottom side Lecce.
