Even though gambling odds believe that AC Milan will win in this derby della madonninna, I am still a little doubtful about AC Milan's current strength. In my opinion, Inter Milan has a better performance than Milan. Even though Inter have had a tough week with a hectic schedule, this victory against Milan will give high confidence for the next match and also to maintain the chances of winning the title.
Where do you see odds? Wherever I watch Inter is considered a clear favorite:
Inter 1.84
Draw 3.85
Milan 4.20
I'm not sure it's fair to give Inter such a big lead (in my opinion the two teams are about even), but the home match plus the best recent results suggests that Inter is indeed the favourite. If Milan lose this match, then most likely it will mean the end of the fight for the championship for it.
Inter has better quality players although Milan has played very well up until now with the players they have at their disposal.Milan just drew against Juventus and that gives Inter calm while they wait to face Milan in the derby of the Madonina on 5 February.For this reason I think Inter is rated a clear favorite because they will play with a greater calm compared to Milan which will be forced to attack to get the win.By doing so they also risk to get counter attacked by Inter and they risk to lose the game,if they lose this game and if Inter wins this they most likely are going to be Champions of Italy,I don't see Napoli as a real threat to them.
Inter not only have better quality players than AC Milan, but Inter also play more consistently. Even Inter until round 22 only suffered one defeat,
so we can conclude that Inter are indeed very strong. So it is very natural that Inter is much more superior than AC Milan, especially if Inter
managed to beat AC Milan. The morale of Inter players is increasing and it will be difficult for AC Milan or Napoli to catch up with Inter's points.
So indeed there is no other way, AC Milan must be able to beat Inter, so that the opportunity to become champion of Serie A is open.
Regarding Napoli, many doubt that they can compete with Inter and AC Milan, but the fact is that Napoli have the same points as AC Milan.
This means that Napoli still has a chance to win Serie A, although not as big as Inter or AC Milan. We have to remember that in football there are
often surprises, so there is a possibility that in Serie A there will be surprises. so Inter and AC Milan should never underestimate Napoli.
