The Serie A season is starting to get interesting as it draws closer and closer to its end. The race for the Champions League places is still very much alive and two of the challenging sides face off on Sunday as AC Milan and Inter play in one of the world’s biggest derbies.
The Milan derbies have been so tight in recent years but it is Inter who have the slight advantage. They have lost just one of the last six in all competitions but with three draws, they only have two wins of their own. They came out on top in the last meeting back in October where they won 1-0. There have been over 2.5 goals in four of the last seven but just two goals in the last three combined.
Milan will take a huge step towards confirming a top-four place with a derby win on Sunday. They are without the injured Giacomo Bonaventura while Christian Zapata is a doubt. Latest matches: AC Milan

Three points for ‘the away side’ will take them into 3rd and put them in the driving seat for a Champions League place. Sime Vrsaljko will miss out while Icardi, Miranda and Radja Nainngolan face late fitness tests. Latest matches: Inter Milan

As ever, it is very hard to choose between these two sides as they both fight for one of the two remaining Champions League spots. Milan certainly have the advantage with the San Siro full of their fans so backing the home side might be worth backing. The last three meetings have seen little in the way of goals so under 2.5 goals looks good value.
