AC Milan are currently in fifth place in the Serie A standings and have not been at their best in recent weeks. The Rossoneri slumped to a shock 2-0 defeat at the hands of Spezia in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been fairly impressive this season. The Nerazzurri defeated Sassuolo by a 4-2 margin over the weekend and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
- Inter Milan have defeated AC Milan on three occasions in all competitions this season and last achieved four victories in a single campaign against the Rossoneri in the 1973-74 campaign.
- AC Milan have lost their last three matches against Inter Milan in all competitions and have failed to score in these games despite attempting a total of 31 shots.
- Inter Milan are looking to reach a final of the UEFA Champions League for the sixth time in their history and for the first time since they achieved the feat under Jose Mourinho in 2010.
- AC Milan have won only one of their last 16 matches as the away side in knock-out matches in the UEFA Champions League
