Milan, who have not been able to defend their crown in Italian football, have a great opportunity to win the Champions League. The 'Rossoneri' are in the semi-finals of this year's edition of the competition and will face arch-rivals Inter Milan on Wednesday.
The 'Derby della Madonnina' kicks off in Europe with a first game that Leao might not be able to make it to. The Portuguese, who suffered an adductor strain in his right leg in the match against Lazio, trained on Tuesday on the sidelines.
The 'Gazzetta dello Sport' reports that Stefano Pioli is preparing for the game without the striker, although he is confident that he can count on him to be on the bench and use him as a substitute if necessary.
According to BeSoccer Pro data, Inter are the team Leao has played against the most times (12), the team he has played the most minutes against (780) and the team he has started against the most times with Milan (9).
If we analyse the Portuguese's record against the 'Nerazzurri', the '17' does not have good memories of their clashes: he is the opponent against whom he has lost the most (7). He has only beaten them 3 times -all in Serie A- and on 2 occasions they drew.
