The first Derby della Madonnina of the season pits together two of Italy's biggest football clubs as Inter and AC battle it out for supremacy in Milan.
Inter play host this time around at San Siro as both teams look to extend their perfect starts to the 2023/24 season but its the home side who'll feel more confident of grabbing the three points on offer.
That's because Inter have dominated this famous matchup of late, winning the prior four clashes without even conceding a goal as they beat their rivals in Serie A, the Champions League semi-finals and the Italian Supercoppa last season.
AC Milan did draw first blood last season with a 3-2 victory over their fierce rivals on matchday five of the campaign, but their head-to-head form since will leave their fans wary heading into this latest derby day.

Inter vs. AC Milan best bet
- Pick: Both teams to score - YES
- Odds: -140 (BetMGM)
Although Inter have kept six clean sheets across their prior seven meetings with old foes Milan, we're backing both teams to score in this latest meeting at San Siro on Saturday.
That's mostly due to the fact that both sides have made a perfect start to the 2023/34 campaign so far, winning all three of their matches whilst netting eight goals apiece.
That's the highest tally in the competition after three match days and although Inter are yet to concede, this latest Milan derby could prove a highly-entertaining and high scoring affair.
Inter vs. AC Milan flier bet
- Pick: A red card to be shown in the match
- Odds: +235 (FanDuel)
Although there wasn't a red card shown across the five Milan derbies last season, there were plenty of yellow cards.
That means that the bookmakers have cottoned on and pushed the odds much lower in the yellow card markets which makes most selections somewhat pointless to back.
Even so, the lack of last season's red card doesn't mean that it won't happen this time around. This clash has seen a lot of dismissals over the years and with a packed out San Siro watching two sides in great form face off, the atmosphere could influence the players here.
If you want a true flier bet, why not pick both sides to be shown a red card at +1650 with FanDuel. Granted, that's an unlikely scenario here but this fixture has seen plenty of bust ups across its history which could occur again this time around.
