Prior to the game at the San Siro, manager Roberto Mancini had been sweating on his fitness, with the Nigeria international diagnosed with a minor hamstring complaint.
But the ex NEPA of Lagos midfielder has passed a late fitness test, and has been named in the provisional 24-man squad list.
Whether Obi gets to feature against his former employer is a totally different ball game, having failed to come off the bench 13 times in the last 15 times he was selected in the 18 - man roster.
Obi represented Parma on loan from Inter Milan last season.
