- Inter enter the match with most key players available and coach Cristian Chivu insisting the side "can still improve," with a win set to greatly ease their path to direct last‑16 qualification.
- In Serie A, Napoli returned to first place by beating Juventus with a Hojlund brace, intensifying scrutiny of Luciano Spalletti as Juve’s push for a top‑four finish grows more precarious.
- Cagliari’s Michael Folorunsho apologized on social media for insulting Roma defender Hermoso’s mother during their match, calling it a heat‑of‑the‑moment reaction.
