AC Milan receives Napoli in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Wednesday April 12, at 9 p.m., at San Siro. For the first time since the 2005-2006 season, three Italian clubs are at the rendezvous at this stage of the competition. To find traces of a 100% Italian clash, you even have to go back to the 2004-2005 season.

Deprived of their top scorer, Victor Osimhen, Napoli will rely on their master to play, the Georgian Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. For Milan, this double confrontation is an opportunity to spice up the end of the season and to believe in a new Champions League, the first since 2007. The reigning Italian champions will lose their property and they could give a completely different look in their season, if they were to go further in the competition.
