AC Milan vs. Napoli is another fascinating matchup. At their base, Napoli, which has been very consistent in the Serie A and Champions League, lost by a wide margin of 0-4 to AC Milan. Napoli holds a commanding lead in the Serie A standings, the defeat before their first-leg match will have some psychological effects on both teams. AC Milan at San Siro will be more certain and less constrained. Napoli needs to refuel its lineup and does not feel invincible. Before the first leg with AC Milan, they can regain their confidence in the match with Lecce.
Before their Serie A match that was played at the Diego Armando Maradonna stadium last weekend I was already tipping Napoli to comfortably eliminate AC Milan the two clubs meet in the UEFA Champions League quarter finals encounter but after Milan thrashed Napoli I had to have a rethink because that result is surely gonna have psychological effect on the both clubs as AC Milan will believe that if they can beat them in the league they can also beat them in UCL. However, Napoli's fine form this season cannot be underestimated and if they can put that weekend result aside they can still win the tie
