UCL 2022/23 : AC Milan VS Napoli : Match Preview, Head-to-Head ,Probable X1, Match Prediction and much more!

One of the biggest games in Napoli’s recent history will be played at the San Siro in Milan. They will compete in an all-Italian quarterfinal of the Champions League against AC Milan, another Italian club. The two Serie A teams will square off in a European competition for the first time ever. The game is set to start on April 13 at 12:30 a.m.

Napoli are currently ahead of AC Milan by 22 points in the Serie A rankings, who are in fourth place. Napoli has surprised everyone with their performance this year, and they are certainly going to win the Serie A title after 30 years. Napoli has never made it into the quarterfinals of the Champions League, while AC Milan has made it to the last eight after 12 years.

Victor Osimhen, the star striker for Napoli, won’t be playing in this game because he’s been excluded from the team owing to a left leg abductor muscle injury. He failed to take part in the previous two games as well. Simeone has not been selected for the game, and it’s possible that he won’t play in the return leg either. Napoli is going to face challenges as a result of these injuries because both of the club’s primary center attackers are out.

Having just thrashed Napoli 4-0 in a Serie A encounter, AC Milan is well prepared and eager for the game. However, they have only won one of their previous nine home games and have lost all three of their recent home clashes against Napoli. A total of 171 games between AC Milan and Napoli have been played, with Napoli winning 51, Milan winning 68, and 52 games ending in draws.

AC Milan’s probable X1: Maignan; Calabria,Tomori, Kjaer, Theo Hernandez; Tonali, Krunic; Brahim Diaz, Leao, Bennacer; Giroud.

Napoli probable X1: Meret; Di Lorenzo, Kim, Rrahmani, Oliveira; Anguissa, Zelinski, Lobotka; Lozano, Kvaratskhelia, Raspadori.

Prediction: Without Osimhen, Napoli would struggle to score; otherwise, Napoli would have been the favorites. However, I think the game will be intense and conclude in a draw.
