Inter Milan v AC Milan

Inter Milan vs AC Milan Preview

The first of this season's Milan derbies will feature on Saturday evening at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza as Inter take on AC Milan with a precious three points at stake as well as the associated bragging rights that this fierce clash brings.

Inter Milan have made an impressive start to this new Serie A season as they have put together a three-match winning streak to get themselves off to a flying start, picking up the maximum points with victories gained over Monza, Cagliari and Fiorentina respectively, which has in turn helped them to the top of the Serie A table.

Last season, Inter Milan finished in third spot and just two points above their upcoming rivals, AC Milan, as both teams achieved automatic qualification for this season's Champions League which has boosted the city's morale overall.

The bigger picture shows Inter Milan have won 10 out of their last 11 matches in the Italian top flight, five of which have been recorded on home soil with wins against the likes of Lazio, Sassuolo, Atalanta, Monza and Fiorentina.

In previous meetings against their old foes, AC Milan, it's been Inter that have held the ascendency in recent times as they have won each of the last four encounters on the trot.

AC Milan have also produced an excellent start to their respective Serie A campaign as they have collected three wins on the trot to sit level on nine points apiece with their city rivals following victories against Bologna, Torino and Roma respectively, the latter being a 2-1 win away from home.

AC Milan will be eager to at least replicate last season's fourth place finish in the Serie A standings this time around although they would dearly love to go one step better by finishing above their upcoming rivals this term.

Recent overall results suggest this may not be out of the question either as they have suffered just the one defeat out of their last 14 matches in the Italian top flight along with winning their last six matches on the trot as well.

In addition, goals for both teams looks promising for this upcoming fixture on Saturday evening as six of AC Milan's last 10 league matches have also resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.

Indeed, with both Inter and AC Milan in promising early form so far in this season's Italian top flight campaign, both sides look extremely capable of scoring at least once here and the goals market is probably the best option for this upcoming fixture as it is a local derby after all.

Honours could be even this Saturday but the prospect of both teams scoring looks to be the most likely outcome here.
