&lt;p&gt;A stellar clash at San Siro tonight at 20.45 CET between two teams in good shape, determined to continue their positive momentum: AC Milan, third, wants a prestigious victory to continue their pursuit of the top two after obtaining two draws and six wins in the last eight matches.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The same goal for Napoli, which after the slump in December and January, has put together three games without defeat, earning seven points in the partial, and wants another victory to get closer to fourth place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since the second half of last December, AC Milan have won 2.5 points per game on average in Serie A (W6 D2) - only fewer than Inter (2.7) in this period in the competition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli have not scored a single goal in their last four league away games (D1 L3), last failing to score for more consecutive matches on the road in the top-flight between May and December 1979 (a run of 6).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan and Napoli are equal in their last 10 encounters in Serie A, with three wins each and four draws. This is after the Neapolitans had recorded seven wins in their 10 previous matches against the Rossoneri in the competition (D2 L1).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After the 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture, AC Milan and Napoli could draw both seasonal Serie A encounters for the first time since 2019-20 (1-1 at Meazza and 2-2 at Maradona in that case).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan have drawn 26 of their 75 home matches against Napoli in Serie A (W32 L17), only drawing more such games against Juventus (34) in the competition. Meanwhile, only against Roma (29) have the Neapolitans recorded more draws away from home in the top-flight.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Olivier Giroud has scored five goals against Napoli (four away from home), more than against any other opponent with AC Milan in all competitions. The French striker has been involved in 19 goals (11 goals, 8 assists) in 20 league appearances this season, which is already his most with the Rossoneri in a single Serie A campaign – he last took part in 20+ goals in a season in the big 5 European Leagues in 2015-16 (22 with Arsenal).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since the start of December 2023 (when he scored his first goal in Serie A with AC Milan), Luka Jovic has the best min/goals ratio in the big 5 European Leagues (min. 5 goals scored): one goal each 41 minutes played on average. Furthermore, only Cristhian Stuani (5) has scored more goals as a substitute than Jovic (4) in the big-5 European leagues this season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Matteo Politano has scored five goals against AC Milan in Serie A, his joint-most against an opponent in the top-flight (also 5 against Genoa). Four of his five goals against the Rossoneri have come at the Meazza – since 2016/17, only Edin Dzeko (5) has scored more away goals against the Rossoneri in Serie A.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: Reijnders (Milan); Mario Rui (Napoli)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Musah e Loftus-Cheek (Milan); Juan Jesus, Di Lorenzo, Mazzocchi, Rrahmani e Ngonge (Napoli)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Doveri (Bindoni-Baccini) IV: Marchetti, VAR: Di Paolo, AVAR: Valeri&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A TIM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Monza-Milan (Sunday 18 February, 20:45 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli-Genoa (Saturday 17 February, 15:00 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;
