    <span class="titolo">Seedorf And Ronaldo To Miss Juventus?</span></p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p>

    <span class="sommario">Milan stars Clarence Seedorf and Ronaldo are struggling to be fit for this Saturday&rsquo;s huge Serie A clash against Juventus.</span></p>

    The Rossoneri go into the game at San Siro eight points behind the in-form Turin-giants, and know that only three points will suffice. </p>

    Seedorf twisted his ankle in last night&rsquo;s Champions League draw against Benfica and was forced to leave the field after 73 minutes. </p>

    The Dutch midfielder now admits that he faces a race against time to be ready for Saturday. </p>

    &ldquo;It was going well for the first 15 minutes and then I twisted the ankle a bit when I landed in a divot and it didn&rsquo;t feel so good,&rdquo; Seedorf revealed.</p>

    &ldquo;But I played 75 minutes and now I have three days to recover and get myself ready for Saturday evening.&rdquo; </p>

    Meanwhile Ronaldo pulled up during the warm-up at the Estadio dal Luz, reporting a pain in his calf. </p>

    Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti subsequently left Ronaldo on the bench for the entire game and despite the boss&rsquo; claims that the problem is &ldquo;nothing serious&rdquo;, El Fenomeno looks highly unlikely to start against Juventus. </p>

    The absence of Seedorf and Ronaldo would be a big blow to Ancelotti, who has admitted that Saturday is a must-win game. </p>

    &ldquo;It will be a difficult game because they are in great form,&rdquo; Carletto stated.</p>

    &ldquo;We cannot afford to fail as a defeat would leave us too far from the top to catch the leaders.&rdquo;</p>
