Osimhen back for Napoli, Giroud cleared to play for AC Milan

AC Milan can move one step closer to reviving its past European glory. Napoli can add another milestone to its extraordinary season.

Figuring out which team will come out on top after the second leg of their all-Italian Champions League quarterfinal on Tuesday at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona may come down to the status of their center forwards.

Serie A scoring leader Victor Osimhen is back from an injured abductor muscle in his left leg that kept him out of Napoli’s 1-0 loss in the first game last week. Milan striker Olivier Giroud has been cleared to play the second leg after an Achilles tendon issue but questions remain over his status.

Milan won the last of its seven European Cup and Champions League titles in 2007, while Napoli is playing in the quarterfinals for the first time.

Napoli is also nearing its first Serie A title in more than 30 years, with a 14-point lead over second-placed Lazio.
