The striker who has 25 goals across Serie A and the Champions League for Napoli this season, picked up an adductor injury while on international duty with Nigeria and has missed his club’s last two matches, including a heavy league defeat to Milan.

Osimhen's absence definitely will be felt by Napoli who will give playing their first ever UEFA Champions League quarter-final game.

He is definitely going to be in line for the return leg at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium next Tuesday.

Napoli have a better head to head record in their last five games and having won all of their last 3 visits to the San Siro, s favourable result could be on the card today for Gli Azzurri.
