Milan vs Napoli: The UCL Match between Milan and Napoli is on April 13 at 12:45 am in Nepal, and 12:30 am India time.
The showdown between Serie A leaders Napoli and defending champions AC Milan at Stadio Maradona on Sunday foreshadows the teams’ clash on Europe’s largest stage.
Set to face off for a spot in the Champions League semi-finals, two Calcio titans meet in Campania, with the host team getting ever closer to stealing the Scudetto from Milan’s grasp.
For only the second time in their top-flight history, Napoli will play Milan with a more than 15-point advantage over their second-city rivals, as an Italian champion passes the baton to another on Sunday evening.
Luciano Spalletti’s side will launch off some 23 points ahead of their opponents in the rankings, following a wretched run for Milan and their own ongoing greatness at home and away, and will almost certainly end a 33-year Scudetto wait long before the action closes in June.
Napoli defeated Torino 4-0 before the international break, after rebounding from a 2-0 loss to Lazio at the start of March by beating Atalanta 2-0 and Champions League opponents Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0 in Naples.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Victor Osimhen were both on target during the Partenopei’s recent winning run, with the former netting twice and the latter collecting four to bring his season tally to 26 goals in all competitions.
They are strong prospects for success in Europe’s best club tournament after defeating Frankfurt, but they must first overcome Milan in the quarter-finals later this month.
The clubs will therefore encounter four times this season, with Napoli already winning 2-1 at San Siro in September, and the hosts aiming to preserve a commanding 19-point advantage at the top of the league in Sunday’s second match.
