It’s time for the Derby della Madonnina once again, and as always, it’s a match that can go either way. Milan will be eager to get their season back on track with a win against their bitter rivals, while Inter will be looking for the three points to keep up the pressure on Napoli in the Scudetto race. With so much at stake, you can be sure this one will be full of excitement.
AC Milan Team News
Milan’s domestic campaign has been underwhelming so far, with the team sitting outside the top 6 in 8th place. Although they’re just 5 points behind 4th-placed Lazio, it’s still an unexpected position for one of Italy’s biggest clubs. On the bright side, the Rossoneri have been strong at home, with their last defeat as hosts coming against Napoli in October. Adding to the intrigue, manager Sérgio Conceição has the chance to become the first Milan coach since Massimiliano Allegri to win his first two derby matches, having already claimed the Super Cup in early January.
Inter Team News
Inter are having a strong season both domestically and in Europe, making them one of the top contenders for the Scudetto. With just 3 points separating them from Napoli and a game in hand, they’re right in the title race. Interestingly, despite enjoying a solid campaign, Inter has lost only 3 matches across all competitions – two of which were against none other than Milan. In Serie A, they’ve won 4 of their last 5 matches, with a draw in the other. Heading into the Derby della Madonnina, the Nerazzurri boast the second-best defensive record in the league and possess the most potent attack, making them a formidable force.
Head-to-Head-Games
This season has not been kind to Inter in the derby, with the Nerazzurri losing the last two encounters against Milan. However, if you look at the broader picture, Inter has actually won 3 of the last 5 meetings between the two sides. Notably, all 4 of the most recent games have featured over 2.5 goals, with both teams finding the back of the net.

AC Milan – Inter Betting Prediction
For this match, I’m going with both teams to score. I expect both sides to go all out for the win – Milan need the 3 points to stay in the top 4 race, while Inter must secure a victory to keep the pressure on Napoli in the title chase. The last 4 Derby della Madonnina matchups have featured plenty of goals, with both teams finding the back of the net each time. Given the stakes and what a win could mean for either side, it’s hard to see this one ending without goals from both teams.
