Napoli face no dangers towards AC Milan in its Champions League second leg at house on Tuesday, based on supervisor Luciano Spalletti who cited the truth that his staff have already made historical past by reaching the quarter-finals.
Serie A pacesetter Napoli made its first look within the final eight of Europe’s elite membership competitors when its visited Milan on Wednesday, shedding 1-0 to an Ismael Bennacer objective.
“There are zero risks around this match. The only risk is achieving infinite joy because we’ve never reached this level and if we win we go even further,” Spalletti informed reporters on Monday.
“I will only be happy tomorrow if we get through to the next round, otherwise any great performance will be scant consolation,” he added.
“We need to play the way we did in the first leg when we emerged with a slight disadvantage but no real remorse. In general, that performance is what I expect.”
The match will see the return of striker Victor Osimhen, who missed each of Napoli’s earlier defeats to Milan this season.
The Nigeria worldwide, Serie A’s prime scorer with 21 objectives, was again on the pitch for 17 minutes within the goalless house draw towards Hellas Verona on Saturday after a thigh pressure.
“Milan play modern, attacking football with a high press, they thoroughly deserved to win the Scudetto last season and will come here to take the initiative. Having Osimhen to deal with will cause them worries too,” Spalletti mentioned.
Napoli will probably be with out centre again Kim Min-jae and midfielder Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa, who’re suspended, and Giovanni Simeone, who has a thigh damage, though Spalletti mentioned there was ample depth within the squad to exchange them.
“We have a squad that allowed us to reach this stage, not just 11 players. Getting the right exercise in training is crucial too, otherwise you forget the movements and get out of practice, so they all contribute there too,” he mentioned.
