Forget what the table says—and you'll need to if you hope to get motivated for this matchup—Sunday's clash between Inter Milan and AC Milan will captivate the football world. The Derby della Madonnina scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on beIN Sports.
The Stage
At one point, the Milan derby was as prominent as El Clasico between Real Madrid and Barcelona, or even as fierce as the clash between Chelsea and Manchester United. Now, both clubs have dissipated into irrelevance. Entering Sunday, Inter Milan is 10th in the Serie A table with 41 points.
AC Milan have barely fared better, boasting one additional point.
Europe is seemingly out of the question for both clubs next campaign. Not even the Europa League is a proper stage for either side, making the Derby della Madonnina a season defining event.
The In-Form Player
Neither club has a player riding true form, but AC Milan's Jeremy Menez has been a lone bright spot this campaign. In 30 league appearances, the 27-year-old has 16 goals and four assists.
Projected Lineups
Inter Milan (4-3-1-2): Handanovic; Jesus, Vidic, Ranocchia, D'Ambrosio; Kovacic, Medel, Hernanes; Shaqiri; Icardi, Palacio
AC Milan (4-3-3): Lopez; Antonelli, Paletta, Mexes, Abate; Poli, Jong, Ginkel; Bonaventura, Menez, Cerci
