Napoli-Milan, Pioli: “We have an advantage.”

AC Milan prepares for the match of the year at the Maradona against Napoli: at stake is the Champions League semifinal, a goal unhoped for at the beginning of the year.

The Azzurri reunite with bomber Osimhen but Stefano Pioli on the eve of the match expresses confidence: “We are very focused, highly motivated and determined, we know that there will be a completely different environment than last time at home to Napoli, but this gives us extra motivation and charge,” are the words reported by Mediaset.

“Something will change in this match for both us and them, but every match is its own story. Of course it is strange to play three games in a few days against the same opponent, but it will be an exciting confrontation as a Champions League quarterfinal can be.”

Pioli feels ahead of the game: “The confidence is there and it has to be there, it will be a match of the highest level on so many different aspects. We have to believe in ourselves, but not because of the result of the first leg, rather because we know our means and our situations. We have a small advantage, but Napoli has scored an average of three goals per game in Champions this year, we have to deserve qualification.”
