On March 8, the 28th round of the Italian Championship will feature a clash between AC Milan and Inter.
After a rather unconvincing previous season, Milan are once again showing decent results. After 27 Serie A rounds, the Rossoneri have accumulated 57 points, which currently puts them in 2nd place in the league table. Milan are 10 points away from both the 6th and 1st positions. However, in the Coppa Italia, the club was less fortunate—they narrowly lost to Lazio in the round of 16.
Inter have looked very strong this season, especially in domestic competitions. Over 27 Serie A matches, the Nerazzurri have collected 67 points, securing the top spot in the table. As previously mentioned, the gap to second place is 10 points. In the cup, Inter have reached the semifinals, where they will face Como (the first match ended in a 0-0 draw). However, in the Champions League, the Italians were unexpectedly eliminated by Bodø/Glimt in the round of 32.
