It's derby day in Serie A as fierce rivals Inter Milan and Juventus are set to lock horns at the San Siro on Sunday.
The two teams head into this edition of the Derby d'Italia having booked their places in the quarter-finals of European competitions.
Inter Milan will meet Benfica in the UEFA Champions League while Juventus will meet Sporting in the UEFA Europa League.
The hosts fell to a shock 2-1 away defeat against Spezia in their previous league outing, with Romelu Lukaku scoring the consolation goal from the penalty spot. It was their second defeat in three games, and as a result, only one point separates them from third-placed Lazio.
Juventus bounced back from their 1-0 defeat against Roma with an impressive 4-2 win over Sampdoria last time around. Adrien Rabiot bagged a brace in that win while Gleison Bremer and Matías Soulé added the other two goals.
