What is the Milan derby?
The Milan Derby, also known as Derby della Madonnina (named after the famous Virgin Mary statue at the top of Milan Cathedral), is one of the oldest and fiercest rivalry matches in global soccer. The clubs have faced off in 246 official matches since they first met in 1908, and have a combined 40 Serie A titles between them. Inter, in fact, is the reigning Serie A champ.
Some legendary players have laced up their cleats for this match, and regardless of how the clubs are performing, there’s always fireworks between these two sides. Luckily for us, they’ve both had strong starts to the season.
What is at stake for Milan and Inter?
Here’s what at stake for Milan and Inter in the 2026 Milan Derby:
Inter
Inter has started the 2026 Serie A season where it left off the last one: The reigning champs lead the latest campaign 22 points through eight games. Inter boasts the league’s highest scorers, buoyed by its forward partnership of Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez. The club has scored more than 3 goals in five league matches thus far.
But the target on Inter’s back will be massive in the 2026 Milan Derby, especially since Milan has beaten the champs in each of their last three meetings. Inter has a long way to go to repeat as Serie A champions, but this early test could certainly tell us if they’re up for the challenge.
Milan
Milan is also in good shape after welcoming in new manager Ruben Amorim over the summer. It’s in fourth place after beating Udinese 2-0 on Oct. 25. Under former Manchester United manager Amorim, the Rossoneri have yet to lose, and took five points from tough matchups against Lazio, Juventus and Atalanta.
Who are the key players to watch in the Milan Derby?
Milan key players
For Milan, Christian Pulisic, Samuel Chukwueze and Diego Moreira are among the key attacking threats in the team. The trio offer pace and playmaking (four combined assists thus far), while Moreira also has three goals** to his name and Goncalo Ramos leads the line.
Veteran midfielder Adrian Rabiot has also chipped in with four goals**, while 20-year-old Alphadjo Cissè is one to watch after breaking into the first team this summer. Goalie Mike Maignan, meanwhile, has two clean sheets to his name, while defenders Strahinja Pavlović, Mario Gila and Koni De Winter have been ever-presents in Amorim’s preferred back-three shape. And against all odds, the ageless, 41-year-old Luka Modric is still playing a significant role for Milan too.
Inter key players
Inter relies heavily on the likes of Alessandro Bastoni and Nicolo Barella to keep its own back-three shape humming around Martinez and Thuram.
Bastoni is considered one of the finest defenders in Serie A, while Barella is tasked with covering the pitch in a box-to-box role. Manuel Akanji also brings experience to the backline, while Federico Dimarco and Andy Diouf also have important all-action roles to play as manager Cristian Chivu’s preferred wingbacks.
And for any fans from England, perhaps the club’s newly-signed trio of Curtis Jones, John Stones and Djed Spence would entice you to watch this match. They’ve all played sparingly this season, but Spence started last week in the UEFA Champions League and don’t be shocked if Stones’ title-winning pedigree is leant on this weekend.
