Match Preview After crashing out of the Europa League with a home defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday, Luciano Spalletti's Inter will be determined to bounce back when they take on their local rivals. The Nerazzurri have won just one of their last five matches, putting their chances of finishing in a Champions League spot this season in danger. The continued absence of striker and former captain Mauro Icardi weighs heavily on Spalletti's shoulders, who needs a strong display against their city neighbours. Spalletti was ashamed of his team's performance in midweek after their capitulation against Frankfurt, saying: "We lacked a bit of everything. We lost balance immediately and made some mistakes for the opener, then got irritable and lost even more balance. "It became a very difficult game. If you don't clear your lines first, or make rough passes, everything becomes an open ball to challenge for. If you treat it with more quality, it's within your control. "Even when moving the ball between spaces, we never created anything of note. The early goal just cranked up the tension and made us feel as if there was no chance. We lost it straight away. "We had plenty of time to deal with the situation intelligently. Instead, we were immediately frenetic and chaotic, trying to force the ball through with individual moves rather than as a team." Inter emerged triumphant from the last clash between these sides when they ended their fierce rivals' nine-game unbeaten run, but the Rossoneri will feel they can enhance their hopes of a top four finish. Article continues below But Gennaro Gattuso's team are in fine form lately as they remain unbeaten in their last 10 games, seeing them move a point ahead of Inter in the Serie A table. Milan striker Krzysztof Piatek has been leading the charge since his arrival from Genoa in January, scoring eight times in nine games for his new side. The 23-year-old will be aiming to continue his incredible scoring run as he looks to stay in the fight with Cristiano Ronaldo and Fabio Quagliarella to be the league's top scorer.<doc-sep>AC Milan vs Inter Milan live stream: Find out how to watch the match When you subscribe we will use the information you provide to send you these newsletters.

Gennaro Gattuso is happy to see his design for an effective AC Milan side taking shape but he admits there are still "holes to patch" before he can unleash the finished article. The former Rossoneri midfielder oversaw an inconsistent start to the Serie A season in his current role as manager. But he has been afforded patience by the board and, ahead of today’s derby meeting with Inter Milan, his team are third in the table after winning five games in a row. Unbeaten in 10, Milan are keen to tie down a Champions League spot and victory in the Derby della Madonnina would propel them four points clear of their fourth-placed city rivals Inter.<doc-sep>AC Milan and Inter Milan will meet up on Sunday for a derby showdown. I Rossoneri has either won or drawn its last 10 matches. Milan looked sharp in its last win with a 2–1 victory over Chievo. Lucas Biglia returned after being out since October with a calf injury and gave his club an early lead with an amazing free kick in the first half. Chievo later tied the match by scoring only the third league goal Milan has given up in 2019. Inter has struggled recently and won only one of its last five matches. The Nerazzurri's 1–0 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday knocked the club out of the Europa League. Here's how to watch Sunday's match: Time: 3:30 p.m. ET Live Stream: ESPN+<doc-sep>AC Milan will host city rivals Inter in name alone on Sunday, as both sides call San Siro home. Derbies don't come much bigger than this in Serie A, and with both sides having undergone a resurgence of late it's one of their most significant clashes in recent history. Juventus have all but wrapped up the title for another year but there's plenty of competition for the remaining Champions League places. Inter have endured a wobble in form recently and handed the momentum to their rivals AC Milan who now occupy that third place. Just a point separates the two sides going into this clash and with second-placed Napoli currently in the worst form of anyone in the top eight, it's all to play for in the run in. How To Watch When is Kick Off? Sunday 17th March What Time is Kick Off? 19:30 (BST) Where is it Played? San Siro Stadium TV Channel/ Live Stream? Premier Sports 1 / Bet 365 Referee? Marco Guida Team News AC Milan should be able to field a fully fit squad with long term absentee Giacomo Bonaventura the only player believe to be ruled out for this clash. Their opponents Inter haven't been so lucky with injuries this year, with four first-team players expected to be missing. Sime Vrsaljko will be out until midway through next season whilst the troubled Mauro Icardi is also expected to be sidelined. Officially the wantaway star is listed as injured, but rumours of a rift have led to talks he will never play for Inter again. Miranda and Radja Nainggolan also picked up knocks this month and are both expected to miss out. Predicted Line-Ups AC Milan Donnarumma; Laxalt, Romagnoli, Musacchio, Calabria, Paqueta, Bakayoko, Biglia, Borini, Piatek, Suso. Internazionale Handanovic; D'Ambrosio, de Vrij, Skriniar, Cedric, Vecino, Brozovic, Candreva, Politano, Perisic, Martinez. Head to Head Record One of the most contested rivalries in football, Milan and Inter have met each other 222 times in history. There's not much to chose between them in the 110 years they've contested this fixture, Inter just edge it with 79 wins to Milan's 76. Incredibly just three goals separate the total scoreline, Inter's 300 to Milan's 297. It's the hosts who have the record victory though, beating their opponents 6-0 back in 2001. Inter have won this fixture by four or more goals on five separate occasions. There's been little to choose between the sides in recent history too with Inter just edging in again. The blue side of Milan has won three of the previous 10 fixtures, with AC Milan winning two and the other five ending in stalemates. Recent Form Milan's form has been red hot in 2019, they haven't tasted defeat in Serie A since before Christmas when they lost to Fiorentina. Between then and now they've lost just once to champions elect Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana final. A draw away at Lazio at the end of last month ensured they remain firmly in the race for the Coppa Italia and is their only blip on otherwise perfect form. Problems began to arise for Inter from the end of January, dropping points to Sassuolo and Torino before crashing out of the Coppa Italia. Talisman and captain Icardi has been out since mid-February following a reported refusal to travel to a Europa League tie against Rapid Vienna. Their form has continued to suffer since, dropping points to Fiorentina and Cagliari before a shock Europa League exit to Eintracht Frankfurt. Here's how each team has performed in their last five fixtures. AC Milan ​ Internazionale Chievo 1-2 AC Milan (9/3) Internazionale 0-1 Eintracht Frankfurt (14/3) AC Milan 1-0 Sassuolo (2/3) Internazionale 2-0 SPAL (10/3) Lazio 0-0 AC Milan (26/2) Eintracht Frankfurt 0-0 Internazionale (7/3) AC Milan 3-0 Empoli (22/2) Cagliari 2-1 Internazionale (1/3) Atalanta 1-3 AC Milan (16/2) Fiorentina 3-3 Internazionale (24/2) Prediction They may be as close in the league table as they are geographically but these are two teams heading in opposite directions. At the start of the new year, Inter had an eight-point lead on their city rivals and looked on course to consolidate Champions League football for another year. They were still in the running for the Coppa Italia and looked one of the stronger sides left in the Europa League with plenty to play for. It's all gone wrong since then and the Icardi situation has certainly not helped, it looks a tall order to finish the season strongly now. AC Milan, on the other hand, can't put a foot wrong, they've overtaken their rivals and can put some real distance between the sides with three points here. It could be a tough evening for Inter as we expect AC Milan to do just that on course to beating Inter to a Champions League place. Prediction: Milan 2-1 Inter<doc-sep>
The Derby Della Madonnina is upon us. Gennaro Gattuso has got everyone at AC Milan dreaming of Champions League football again, but the job’s far from done yet.

Milan vs Inter – The Form Guide AC Milan are enjoying an incredible run of form. You have to go back to before Christmas to find the last time Milan lost in the league. It was a 1-0 home defeat to Fiorentina. Since then, it’s been seven wins and three draws in 10 games. When a derby comes around, they say form goes out of the window. AC Milan need to up their game on Sunday against rivals Inter. Not only because it’s a derby, but also because they’ve not beaten Inter in the league since January 2016. Inter head into the Derby di Milano on the back of Europa League heartache. They were dumped out of the competition by Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek. Domestically, it’s been a bit of a mixed bag recently, too. They beat a poor SPAL side 2-0 last time out but lost away at Cagliari the week before. Previous to that, they blew a 3-1 lead away at Fiorentina to draw 3-3. Score Prediction 2-1. Inter won the reverse fixture 1-0, but you can’t ignore how good AC Milan have been recently. Their fans deserve some cheer against their rivals, and I think they’ll get it here. Inter blew the chance of Europa League success on Thursday night, and I think that may play a part this weekend. Milan know a win against their rivals will almost certainly give them Champions League football next season. They won’t want to pass that up. Betting Tip Although the last couple of games have been tight between the two sides, there are always plenty of chances. Four have the last six meetings have seen over 2.5 goals scored, and I think there will be goals in this one. Over 2.5 goals looks decent value at odds of 11/10, so that’s the bet for me. If you’re feeling brave and want better odds, consider AC Milan in the Match Result and Over 2.5 Goals market at odds of 3/1. Mauro Icardi and Krzysztof Piatek – Head to Head Stats Mauro Icadi is still sidelined with a knee problem, but Krzysztof Piatek is threatening to take over from Icardi as the best striker in Milan. Let’s looks at some stats.
