Antonio Conte, Inter's head coach, spoke during the press conference ahead of the derby to the media to discuss the coming clash.
It is a challenge that, after many years, sees the two Milanese sides in the first two places of the standings. Here are some of the important quotes:
What derby do you expect ?
"A different derby compared to the derbies of the past years because it concerns the high ranking. We are paired, first and second and I think that, for Milan, it is a great satisfaction. The derby must now be won to aim for the top in the standings."
How can Ibrahimovic be stopped?
"The problem of Ibrahimovic can be solved by working as a team, we're talking about a strong player who scored against us in previous matches, but he won't necessarily manage to do it again. However, winning counts, our team performance counts."
Can Eriksen start from the beginning ?:
“I don't know, I still have doubts for tomorrow. Christian is improving, we now have more time to work like during the Christmas break. He made progress. That is Good for everyone."
