In Serie A, the fireworks will be on when Inter and AC Milan play the first Derby della Madonnina, also known as the Milan Derby, today at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro).

The Milan teams have enjoyed some level of success in Serie A in the last three seasons, with Inter Milan winning the title in the 2020–21 season and AC Milan winning the title a year later in the 2021–22 season.

Inter currently sits at the top of the Serie A table with three wins out of three, with AC Milan only second on goal difference.

Super Eagles forward Samuel Chukwueze could make his debut in the Milan Derby after scoring for Nigeria in the 6-0 win over Sao Tome and Principe last Sunday.
