AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti isn't worried that his team has only scored one goal in four Serie A games ahead of Tuesday's Champions League match against Anderlecht.
Striker Alberto Gilardino hasn't scored for Milan for 699 minutes in all competitions, so Ricardo Oliveira could partner Filippo Inzaghi in attack for the Group H match at the Vanden Stock Stadium.
``We have to find different options because we've been playing in the same manner for four games,'' Ancelotti said. ``Don't worry. Milan will start to score and play well again _ I guarantee it.
Milan, which hosts Anderlecht on Nov. 1, leads the group with four points, two ahead of the Belgian club and Lille. AEK Athens has one point.
``It's senseless to try and figure out which players are more responsible,'' Ancelotti added. ``We want to get six points in these two games with Anderlecht so we can concentrate on the league again.''
Anderlecht, which beat Belgian Cup holder Zulte-Waregem 4-0 last weekend with two goals from its Argentine striker Nicolas Frutos, doesn't have the same scoring problem.
``We have to win, it's as simple as that,'' Frutos said. ``Milan's defense is experienced, but they concede goals too.''
Milan's defence has actually been its saviour in its last four Serie A game _ conceding only one goal _ but it does have injury concerns.
Left back Serginho is out and could be replaced by Marek Jankulovski, while Daniele Bonera is likely to come in with right back Cafu not fully fit. Midfielder Andrea Pirlo will return after being rested.
The Champions League is important to the former Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi's club after it was penalized eight Serie A points in the match-fixing scandal. Milan is in 13th place with four points.
Anderlecht is second in the Belgian league _ three points behind leader Racing Genk _ but coach Frankie Vercauteren also has injury worries. Nicolas Pareja is out for a month after having a knee operation, while fellow defender Jelle Van Damme is in doubt.
