Team News
AC Millan
First-choice goalkeeper Mike Maignan has not played since September due to a calf injury, and while Milan are hopeful the Frenchman will return for the second leg, he has been ruled out of Tuesday's contest, ensuring Ciprian Tatarusanu will continue to deputise in his absence.

Following a spell on the sidelines, Fikayo Tomori both recover in time to feature in the starting lineup, but Pioli has revealed that Ismael Bennacer remains unavailable.

The unmistakable figure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned to the Milan bench on Friday - the first time since May 2022 - but after spending an extended period on the sidelines, he had to settle for being an unused substitute, and he is unlikely to get any minutes against Tottenham.
AC Milan possible starting lineup:
Tatarusanu; Kalulu, Kjaer, Tomori; Calabria, Krunic, Tonali, Hernandez; Diaz, Leao; Giroud

Tottenham
Like their hosts, Tottenham are also unable to call upon their first-choice shot-stopper, with Hugo Lloris ruled out with a knee injury, and his deputy Fraser Forster will be looking for better protection than what he received from his defence at the weekend.

Cristian Romero was suspended for the Premier League meeting with Leicester, and he will replace Japhet Tanganga in the lineup on Tuesday, joining Eric Dier and Ben Davies in a back three.

Bentancur sustained a season ending anterior cruciate ligament injury on Saturday, and with Yves Bissouma injured and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg suspended, Tottenham may be forced into fielding the untried midfielder pairing of Pape Sarr and Oliver Skipp.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Forster; Romero, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Sarr, Skipp, Perisic; Kulusevski, Son; Kane
Prediction: AC Milan 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur
