PREDICTIONS
Milan has a slight advantage over the opponent, the club is focused only on the championship and the Italian Cup, while Inter is still in the Champions League. Inter has not lost to Milan in 12 of their previous 14 matches in Serie A and the Italian Cup (7 wins, 5 draws). We predict that Inter will not lose.
