Milan aims to revenge their defeat in the Coppa Italia and reclaim the top spot in Serie A, while Inter is out to confirm their position as League leaders. Read our reasons for Milan vs Inter prediction and betting tips.
Milan won the reverse fixture and might win both League games against Inter for the second time in 15 years. The last time was in the 2010-11 season when the Diavolo won the Scudetto. Stefano Pioli maintained Milan ‘would’ve deserved the victory,’ but was unable to prevent 10-man Red Star Belgrade’s equalizer, and explains their recent slump. The Rossoneri had twice taken the lead in Belgrade’s legendary Marakana, with an own goal and soft penalty, but were pegged back to 2-2 in stoppages by a team down to 10 men. “We return home without the victory that we would’ve deserved, as we were unable to lock it down,” Pioli told media in the Europa League Round of 32 tie. “We need to do more when against 10 men and not allow such spaces to Red Star. It was the right approach and we had done enough to bring home the victory, but we didn’t make the most of the situation. We could’ve scored the third goal, but most of all not conceded the equalizer. Nonetheless, 2-2 away from home remains a positive result for the first leg.”
It was another disappointing performance after the 2-0 defeat to Spezia, so is Milan losing confidence going into the derby with Inter? “We have to analyze our games and raise the bar for performances because this is an important moment in our season. We can do better. It’s important to look at the situation overall. There was a period where we had a lot of injuries, so the same players were always out there and are now tired. We’ve got to get everyone back in shape. I don’t think that was the issue today, though, as we didn’t win because we didn’t have the character to score the third goal. The worst aspect of the night is losing Ismael Bennacer to another injury.”
Milan (4-2-3-1): Donnarumma; Calabria, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Hernandez; Tonali, Kessie; Saelemaekers, Calhanoglu, Rebic; Ibrahimovic
Suspended: none
Injured: Brahim Diaz, Maldini, Bennacer
Antonio Conte hailed Inter ‘mental strength’ after beating Lazio 3-1 to become the new Serie A leaders and explains how Christian Eriksen and Ivan Perisic have been transformed on a tactical level. The Nerazzurri needed the victory to leapfrog Milan and go top of the table, something they had not experienced during the second half of the Serie A season since the Treble campaign of 2009-10. “This was an objective we’d been chasing for a long time, to get to the top of the table, we achieved it today after a game against a very strong team. I congratulate Lazio and Simone Inzaghi, as they are tough, organized, and with a lot of quality,” Conte told the media. “The fact they were coming off six consecutive victories shows their strength, but at the same time, it shows our mental strength. I am happy for the lads, inevitably this must be a starting point for us and not the finish line. We know the next game is the derby with Milan, going into it ahead is much better. It’s going to be a fascinating game between two teams who have strong ambitions.”
Romelu Lukaku was the real leader, scoring two goals and running from his half to lay it on a silver platter for Lautaro Martinez on the third. “Romelu and the whole team gave a great response. Lautaro did well, so did Ivan Perisic, Marcelo Brozovic, the defenders. They all stepped up. Some were starting to murmur about Lukaku after the Coppa Italia and a few opaque performances, suggesting he had some psychological blowback from that, but there are moments when you are not at 100 percent. He came back firing on all cylinders tonight and we need this Romelu. We need this determination and passion from everyone on the team. Christian Eriksen is starting to understand what we want from him and I think the fact he played last week and tonight shows he’s growing. This is the path, everyone needs to feel they are protagonists and we can count on everybody. We know there is only one objective, and that is to make Inter proud.”
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Hakimi, Barella, Brozovic, Eriksen, Perisic; Lukaku, Lautaro
Suspended: none

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
