Stefano Pioli and Simone Inzaghi go head-to-head once again as AC Milan and Inter Milan meet in the Champions League semi-final.

Neither side has managed to make the latter stages of this competition for a while, with the last all-Italian semi-final coming back in 2003.

Both Milan and Inter are fighting on two fronts as they go in search of a top-four finish in Serie A alongside their pursuit of European glory.

Manzano has not been involved with an Inter game this season but did take charge of Milan's 3-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb in group stage. In that game, he awarded Milan a penalty, which Olivier Giroud dispatched.

The Spaniard has shown 26 yellow cards across his five Champions League games in the 2022/23 campaign, but has not handed out a red card.
