The Milan Derby : Internazionale vs A.C. Milan

[jani]

Haa the time has come for one of my favourite fixtures in Serie A.

The game, as Mikey said, comes at a bad time where everyone is still thinking of the Champions League where Inter earned a 1-1 draw at Porto while Milan scored an excellent 1-0 win againts Man Utd.

Inter come into this game with yet another draw and are their star striker, Adriano has been strugling of late. Still without a goal in 2005, he could be anxious to score his first Derby goal for Inter.

Milan, on the other hand, are missing the best forward in the world, Andriy Shevchenko through a facial injury but their Christmas Tree formation has proved that it works perfectly againts the big teams. Kaká, who has scored two goals in three league derbies for Milan, would be looking to add to his tally and cause more problems to the Inter defence. The last time the two met, Kaká didnt score, but he got 6 (yes, six) Inter players booked trying to mark him.

Personally, I think this is the time Inter finally lose their 100% unbeaten record. Kaká said "Sorry Adriano, but Milan will win this 3-2". I agree with the first part, "Sorry Adriano", but we will win this 2-0 with him grabbing a double.

I hope it turns out to be a super match and I hope Juve lose to Siena.



Forza Milan

It's do or die for Inter.

Inter's lose or draw will put an end in Serie A title. I'm pessimistic however in this match. But, I'm hoping Inter can win.

Forza Inter !

Just so Milan can do the honours

FORZA MILAN 3-1

[jani]

Inter boss Roberto Mancini is considering relegating star striker Adriano to the bench for Sunday’s derby against Milan.

The Brazilian is the club’s top scorer this term but he hasn’t added to his 14 League goals since December 12.

Mancio has kept faith with the forward despite his recent injury problems and transfer speculation linking him with Real Madrid.

But Mancio is now pondering his options ahead of the derby, a game that Inter must win to keep their slim title hopes alive.

The tactician is seriously thinking about playing with a strike pair of Obafemi Martins and Christian Vieri.

Martins has been in splendid form recently and again impressed on Wednesday in the Champions’ League.

The Nigerian scored in the 1-1 draw at the Dragao Stadium, making it almost impossible for him to be ignored at the weekend.

Vieri, meanwhile, is relatively fresh after he played just 10 minutes as a substitute in Portugal.

Martins and Vieri have linked up well in the past, which suggests that Adriano will be used as a luxury substitute on Sunday.

Inter go into the game a massive 11 points behind Milan and Juventus but Mancini continues to insist that they are still Scudetto contenders.
