Inter-AC Milan: H2H, match preview, predicted line-ups

15 ott 2017

Inter and AC Milan play the Milan derby tonight, a key clash for both sides whose objective is to qualify for the Champions League this season. AC Milan have lost three of their opening seven Serie A games of the season and are already out of top four, that’s why tonight’s game is more important for the rossoneri than for the nerazzurri who, however, would close the gap with Napoli in case of victory against AC Milan tonight.

Inter and AC Milan have drawn their last two Serie A meetings 2-2 - the last time they drew three Serie A meetings in a row was in February 1937.

Inter have lost only one over the last 12 league home clashes against AC Milan (W8 D3): they have alternated a win and a draw in the last six.

Inter have gained 19+ points after the first seven Serie A matches for the first time since the 2002/03 season.

Inter have found the net in 30 of their last 31 league home games, winning 21 games in the process (D4 L6).

AC Milan have lost two consecutive Serie A meetings for the first time since February, when they had lost three in a row.
