AC Milan v Inter Milan Betting Tips [22 April 2024]

Inter Milan’s dream scenario in winning the Serie A title will come true when they face AC Milan on Monday. This derby, hosted by Milan, features top-placed Inter, with Milan in second. For a while, it has been clear Inter Milan will bag the Scudetto, but AC Milan won’t want it to be by beating them. That’s what will shape the latest Milan derby. Milan will go into this game on 69 points, 14 behind Inter and on the back of three winless outings. They lost their last game 2-1 to Roma in the Europa League and are thus eliminated from Europe. Now all they can play for is a top four finish in the league, and derby pride on Monday. One clean sheet only in their last seven matches will not work well for their confidence going to this game. Five straight defeats to Inter ahead of this game don't make for a good reading either. In the reverse fixture, played in September, Inter Milan blanked them 5-1. That goal scored by Raphael Leao is Milan’s only strike in the last five meetings with Inter. Their place as underdogs couldn't be more reinforced.

Inter Milan lost this derby last in 2022; their only defeat to Milan in the last eight meetings. They come here needing a win to set an unassailable lead and they are favorites for the three points. Each of these sides has won 19 Serie A titles and never has either won at the end of the Milan derby. Thus a new record could be set at the San Siro on Monday. Recent draws with Napoli and Cagliari slowed down Inter’s march but there’s no side that has seemed capable of stopping them from winning the title. They come here unbeaten in their last four games, after Cagliari’s fightback saw their last game end 2-2. The last time they tasted defeat in Serie A was in September. Inter are on a 26-match unbeaten run in the league, Sassuolo being the only team to beat them this season.

AC Milan are the underdogs coming into this game. The Milan derby hasn’t been their best hunting place in recent meetings with Inter, losing each of the last five. They have also not been prolific in attack in recent derbies. On the flipside, Inter are in good shape both in this fixture and in Serie A, and will walk here as favorites. Our prediction for AC Milan v Inter Milan is for Inter Milan to win.
