Napoli look to overturn a one-goal deficit as they face AC Milan in the 2022/23 Champions League quarterfinal second leg.
Despite a 14-point lead in Serie A, the Partenopei have already lost twice to Milan in April, including a 4-0 thrashing at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Milan needed just one goal in the Round of 16 to defeat Tottenham, but they will be hard pushed to keep Napoli at bay in this fixture given Luciano Spalletti’s side have emerged as genuine contenders for the competition.
The winner of this tie will face either Inter Milan or Benfica in the semifinals. Inter hold a 1-0 aggregate lead in that quarterfinal.
