Milan Derby: Inter seeks the knockout blow, Milan attempts one last assault. When and where to watch it on TV

Anticipation grows for the most important match of the Serie A championship: the top-of-the-table derby between league leaders Inter and second-placed Milan. The two teams are separated by a gap of 10 points, with Chivu's side charging towards the twenty-first Scudetto in their history. With 11 matches still to play and 33 points up for grabs, the Rossoneri come into the challenge with one last chance to attempt an unthinkable feat and reopen the title race.

Latest on Milan

Good news for Milan as Bartesaghi returns to group training. The left winger has resumed training with his teammates after suffering a hamstring strain against Cremonese. The defender immediately puts himself forward for a starting spot in place of Estupinan on the opposite flank to Saelemakers. Gabbia remains unavailable, which should once again pave the way for De Winter alongside Pavlovic and Tomori. In midfield, alongside the irreplaceable Rabiot and Modric, the question is between Fofana and Ricci. Completing the lineup are Leao and one among Pulisic, Nkunku, and Fullkrug. At the moment, the favorite to start is the American, still searching for his best condition.

Rest for Inter

The main doubt for Cristian Chivu concerns Bonny, who, despite the day off granted yesterday by the coach to the entire team, still trained at Appiano Gentile to be available in time for the derby. The unavailability of Lautaro Martinez has been certain for some time, and he may only return to the field on March 22 for the match against Fiorentina. The coach is expected to rely on his key players, fielding in front of Sommer the trio composed of Bisseck, Akanji, and Bastoni, supported on the right by Luis Henrique and on the left by the crucial Dimarco. Calhanoglu is pushing to return to the starting lineup in the league alongside Barella and Zielinski. The alternative to the Turk should be Mkhitaryan. In attack, the almost obligatory choice is for the pair Thuram-Esposito.

When the derby is played and where to watch it on TV and streaming
