Milan vs Inter: team news and expert analysis
The San Siro giants disappointed in the closing stages of last season, slipping from second place to finish fifth. As a result, they once again missed out on Champions League football. Moreover, the Italians began their Europa League campaign with a home defeat to Benfica, but in October they thrashed Red Bull in Salzburg, while the clash with Bournemouth ended in a disastrous 0-3 defeat. In Serie A, meanwhile, wins and draws alternated under Ruben Amorim. However, they lost 2-4 to Bologna in the most recent round.
Their neighbors completed a "golden double" in the spring. Before that, though, they had suffered plenty of slip-ups, including in the Champions League. This season, the Italians began their campaign there with defeats, while they were simply fortunate to beat Shakhtar 1-0. The reigning Scudetto holders have defensive problems in Serie A as well, but make up for them with character and attacking output—they have failed to beat only Roma, although they came back from 0-2 to draw that match. Since then, they have beaten every opponent, including Venezia this week, 2-0.
Rabiot and company score two goals per game while conceding considerably fewer—1.22. The champions play in spectacular fashion: they score an average of 2.78 goals and concede 1.11.
Previous matches: Milan vs Inter
