Stays out for Benfica match Frattesi (thigh) "won't be risked Tuesday, and we'll see for Saturday," coach Simone Inzaghi relayed.

Impact Frattesi will sit his second match in a row due to a small thigh problem. Henrikh Mkhitaryan will most likely return to the XI after initially resting midweek, while Davy Klassen and Krstjan Asllani will be the top backups in the midfield.
