Big Italian derby tonight, Milan-Inter

Coach Sérgio Conceicão is under pressure to improve the performance and achieve the qualification target of the Champions League.

He will hope Derby della Mandonina will revive Milan season. Statistics are encouraging, as they are invincible in the last three confrontations between them (2 victories, 1 draw), but in the edition of 2021/22, they were eliminated just from Inter at this stage of competition.

The Inter, on the other hand, continues to form impressively after on Sunday he defeated Udinesen 2-1 and scored two or more goals in the fifth round, leading to the five series of winnings. The Neanderthals hold a three-point advantage at the head of Serie A and continue to dream of a historical triplet.

Seeing that in the possible final of Coppa Italy awaits a lighter opponent like Empoli or Bologistna, this may be the best opportunity for Inter to become the second most successful club in the tournament, passing Rome, with which he shares nine titles.

First Challenge of U quarterfinal EFA Champions League against Bayern Munich may be a distant distraction to Inter, but they are aware of the immediate importance of this confrontation with Milan.

Given both their previous matches in Coppa Italy this season in “San Siro” against elite teams (Udinese and Lazio) have won without a goal, Inter will hope their strong defence to help secure an important advantage in this semifinal.
