AC Milan ended a run of four Serie A games without victory as they beat Chievo 4-1.

Suso eased the pressure on Vincenzo Montella, putting the Rossoneri ahead on 36 minutes and an own goal from Bostjan Cesar six minutes later strengthened their grip on proceedings.

Ten minutes into the second half Hakan Calhanoglu made it 3-0 but Valter Birsa pulled a goal back for Chievo on 62 minutes following a poor back-pass from Franck Kessie.

But a minute later Nikola Kalinic grabbed a fourth to seal the convincing victory and move Milan up to eighth.
