Noah Okafor, who scored at the weekend and is the Bulls' European top scorer with three goals to his name, will lead the attack along with one of Junior Adamu, who is not at his best and in doubt for the San Siro match, and the formidable Šeško. "We will need courage, we have shown that we can hold our own against the Rossoneri. We have to attack, knowing that the opponent can be dangerous from the restart, but trying to play our game with great awareness and clarity in our choices," Stefano Pioli said on the eve of the match. Giroud will lead the attack, and behind him Leão will try to strike from the left flank, while Díaz and [Messias](https://www.acmilan.com/en/teams/men-first-team/players/junior-messias/statistics) should complete the team. The first change of the day compared to the match in Croatia is [Fikayo Timori's](https://www.acmilan.com/en/teams/men-first-team/players/fikayo-tomori/statistics) return from suspension, who should resume his role in the centre of defence alongside Simon Kjær. If the Austrians have to win to continue their journey in Europe's most prestigious tournament, the Rossoneri have to avoid defeat to get through to the Champions League knockout stage for the first time since 2014.

Milan in another must win situation. The side have a monumental 90 minutes ahead of them and the key players need to turn up.
He needs to be more dynamic in and around the box but also be more positive with the ball at his feet as opposed to continually knocking it all the way back to the defence. He really struggled against Wober in the first leg of this game as the pace of the Austrian centre back and his physicality to push Giroud off the ball threw off the Frenchman.

Right now, they are the best bets. In their previous match, AC Milan played surprisingly poorly against Torino, and they have a point to prove in this match. The Rossoneri will need to rebound this week after suffering a shocking 2-1 defeat to Torino in their previous match.

AC Milan needs a point to seal qualification into the knockout stages as they host nearest challengers RB Salzburg at the San Siro.
In terms of quality, Milan has the firepower to dislodge the defences of any team. Taking home advantage into account, the Rossoneri certainly have a huge boost, but Salzburg will be at their best. Milan would be hoping the winger fires on all cylinders and gets the critical goals they need to progress. The latter will replace Fikayo Tomori in the lineup. The attacker could make history by sending Milan through to the next round. Ciprian Tatarusanu will continue between the sticks, with Matteo Gabbia and Simon Kjaer expected to retain their places in central defence. The Rossoneri slipped to third in the league but remained in charge of their fate in Europe. However, it will take a fearless and famous victory at the San Siro to make that happen. Milan desperately needed a positive result in Croatia and will be pleased with the outcome. The Austrians hope to qualify for the knockout rounds for a second consecutive season. Milan ensured they put Dinamo Zagreb to the sword with an impressive 4-0 victory away from home. The four teams went in with a chance to qualify for the next round, but only Chelsea made their case.

The final action of the game was the fourth goal and it came from Junior Messias. Shortly after, Tonali provided a nice turn and shot on the half-volley from the edge of the 18-yard box but it was straight at Koln. Giroud just could not be kept out of the game as he doubled his tally for the night in the 57th minute. He took the opportunity with a calm finish from close range, but the offside flag rightly ruled it out. If Giroud had blocked the previous attempt, he was the hero moments later as he headed Milan into the lead. The full-back broke free on the left and shot fiercely but the ball cannoned off the post and away.
