Beat AC Milan and crown champions in the Derby della Madonnina—what could be a better script for Inter Milan?

The 14-point gap is too big, and even a defeat by Milan could not clinch the title away, but honour and rivalry are what Stefano Pioli’s side has to win.

AC Milan are in a good position to finish second in the league behind Inter Milan, and they will want to keep hold of their position as a primary objective.

It has been quite frustrating for Pioli’s side in all competitions, losing their Europa League quarter-finals to AS Roma and a draw with Sassuolo sandwiched between those clashes. Pioli’s men lead third-placed Juventus by six points but have played a game more than the Bianconeri.

Pioli may leave at the end of this season, but he will absolutely want to end his spell with Milan in fashion.

Inter and AC Milan’s possible line-up

Probable Line-up (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Florenzi, Gabbia, Tomori, Hernandez; Bennacer, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Giroud
