Milan Derby Preview, Forecasts, and Top Wagers: An Analysis

Article:

In an anticipated football showdown, AC Milan and Inter Milan will face each other at the San Siro on Monday. With a victory, Inter Milan can secure the Serie A title in the Derby della Madonnina. The Nerazzurri have only suffered one loss in the league this season, and have won their last five encounters against the Rossoneri.

AC Milan's Recent Form

Milan is currently winless in three games, having been on a long winning streak prior. They lost twice in February, which was followed by seven consecutive victories in all competitions. After three triumphs on the road, they defeated Lecce 3-0 at home with ten men. The team's recent struggles include a 1-0 home loss to AS Roma in the Europa League, a 3-3 draw at Sassuolo, and a 2-1 loss at Roma despite outshooting their opponents 20-6, and playing for 54 minutes with a one-man advantage.

Team News for AC Milan

Stefano Pioli will be without Malick Thiaw in defense due to a suspension. Pierre Kalulu is injured and doubtful, while Simon Kjaer is questionable to play as well. The team may refresh its lineup in light of the recent poor performances. Samuel Chukwueze could start on the right flank, and Tijjani Reijnders might join the midfield.

AC Milan's Motivation

Milan currently has a six-point lead over third place, and will aim to secure a top-two spot in the league. Determined to halt Inter's title run for another week, they will take an aggressive approach to the game.

Inter Milan's Recent Form

Inter Milan has losed only once in their last 20 matches. An impressive 13-game winning streak saw them win matches against the likes of Juventus and Roma in Serie A, lifting the Italian Super Cup, and recording a dominant 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16 first leg. However, they lost in Madrid for their second leg and were subsequently eliminated on penalties. Their recent league form includes two wins and two draws. After a home draw against Napoli, they won 2-0 against Empoli and 2-1 at Udinese in the 95th minute. Last Sunday proved to be a surprise 2-2 home draw against Cagliari.

Team News for Inter Milan

Inter Milan enters the game with a clean bill of health. Juan Cuadrado is back from a long injury and may provide options on the right. Matteo Darmian is set to play as right-wingback instead of Cuadrado and Denzel Dumfries. Alexis Sanchez and Yann Bisseck are expected to be substitutes in attack and defense respectively. Captain Lautaro Martinez and defender Benjamin Pavard are back from suspensions, ready to take the field in those positions.

Inter Milan's Motivation

Simone Inzaghi's side can clinch the title at the San Siro by winning this match. Eager to achieve this milestone, they will strive for victory. A draw would delay the celebrations for at least a week, and Inter will not settle for only a point in this crucial derby match.
