MN: Probable XIs for Napoli vs. Milan – Pioli remains loyal

Stefano Pioli is set to remain loyal to the players that put AC Milan 1-0 up in the tie when he names his team for the Champions League quarter-final second leg against Napoli.

As reported by Milan News, the coach is not going to be tinkering with his team and after making so many changes for the Serie A fixture against Bologna, he will flip it back to the team that won 1-0 at San Siro.

Milan travel to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona knowing that a tough task awaits as Victor Osimhen will be back in attack for Napoli. He missed the 4-0 win for Milan in Serie A and the first Champions League game.

Rade Krunic will remain in the deeper midfield role alongside Sandro Tonali and that means Ismael Bennacer, who scored in the first leg, will be further forward as a No.10.

Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Tonali, Krunic; Diaz, Bennacer, Leao; Giroud.

Bench: Mirante, Thiaw, Kalulu, Florenzi, Pobega, Messias, Rebic, De Ketelaere, Origi.

Probable Napoli XI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Juan Jesus, Mario Rui; Ndombele, Lobotka, Zielinski; Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia.
