An age-old rivalry will reignite on Sunday when bitter rivals AC Milan and Inter Milan face each other in the Derby della Madonnina in Serie A.
AC Milan followed upon their dramatic win over Parma in the league with a disappointing 2-1 loss to Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League which saw them miss out on direct qualification to the Round of 16.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, are on a six-game unbeaten run since losing to AC Milan in the Supercoppa Italiana, with a 3-0 win against AS Monaco in the Champions League in their last game.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

AC Milan have the chance to win three consecutive Milan derbies for the first time since 2011. However, Inter have won nine of their last 15 meetings.
While Conceicao’s side have shown this season they turn up for big occasions, Inter Milan have been relentless in recent weeks and should win the derby.
