The Rossoblu are starting to regain their form and are unbeaten in all competitions since a disappointing loss to Aston Villa on September 25th.
There were several stalemates, including a 1-1 home win against Freiburg, but they regained their form with a 2-1 win away at Steaua Bucharest in the Europa League and a 3-1 win over Parma in Serie A on Sunday.
Remo Freuler is sidelined along with Ciro Immobile with a broken collarbone, while Lorenzo de Silvestri, Ibrahim Slemana and Benaimin Dominguez are ineligible for this tournament.
Santiago Castro will rotate the team, supported by Bernardeschi, Niccolò Cambiaghi and Fabian.
Coach Vincenzo Italiano has been discharged from hospital after a week of treatment for pneumonia, but it remains to be seen whether he will be on the touchline tonight.
SK Brann are from Norway and have had a good run in the Europa League so far, defeating FC Utrecht and Glasgow Rangers after losing 2-1 to Lille.
Injuries are a concern as Noah Holm, Felix Horn Maile, Saber Atli Magnusson, Jonas Torsvik, Sacarias Opsaal and Niklas Jensen-Wasberg are absent.
