Speaking about the players individually, Rafael Leao has 37 successful dribbles in the Champions League this year, a record for a Milan player in a single season since Kaká in 2004-05 (also 37 in that case). THE Lautaro Martines for his part, he has 7 goals in 12 matches against the “rosoneri”. Sandro Tonali is the footballer-barometer for the axis of Stefano Pioli’s team, while Federico Dimarco counts 4 assists in open play this year and has a great participation in the creative part!

At 4-1-1, Milan’s home record in semifinals Champions Leagueconceding just 1 goal, while Inter have kept a clean sheet in 6 of their 10 games this season in the competition.

Out of the European list is the injured Ibrahimovic anyway, while Leao did not train on Tuesday either, thus reducing the chances of him being available for the derby. Stopper Skriniar is injured for Inter, while D’Ambrosio and Gozens are fighting to catch up.

Possible lineups:

Milan (Stefano Pioli): Menian – Calabria, Chiar, Tomori, Hernandez – Tonali, Krunic, Benacer – Diath, Giroud, Salemachers.

Inter (Simone Inzaghi): Onana – Darmian, Acerbi, Batsoni – Dumfries, Barela, Brozovic, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco – Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez.
