"In the last 15 league games, the Nerazzurri have only dropped points once (!) and that was the draw against Napoli. While Milan haven't been perfect in the last few weeks, it would have been hard to catch up even if they had been."
"Many raised their eyebrows when Inter decided to replace Simone Inzaghi, the manager who had done so well in the league for so many years, with a relative rookie in Cristian Chivu. Even more so as the Romanian had only coached youth football before, apart from a 13-game stint at Parma."
"Chivu has stepped up to the plate on this front, as winning 14 of the last 15 games (the other game ended in a draw) speaks for itself really. It has also made it impossible for Milan to feel any sort of momentum in the Scudetto race, only falling further behind."
Inter enters the Derby della Madonnina in outstanding form, having won 14 of their last 15 league matches with only one draw against Napoli. This dominant run has extended their lead over AC Milan to 13 points, making a comeback nearly impossible for their rivals. Manager Cristian Chivu, a relatively inexperienced appointment who replaced Simone Inzaghi, has exceeded expectations despite his limited managerial background. Chivu previously coached only youth football before a brief 13-game stint at Parma. Despite initial doubts about his appointment, Chivu has proven effective, demonstrating strong sideline presence and tactical direction. Inter's squad features top scorer Lautaro Martinez with 14 Serie A goals and Federico Dimarco with 14 assists. The team faces potential injury concerns with Martinez and Thuram questionable for the derby.
