After El Clasico, Saudi Arabia is hosting a cup final once again. This time, two of the biggest Italian teams are competing for the Super Cup in Riyadh. AC Milan needs a turnaround in their season, and this might be their opportunity while Inter Milan can cap off a good week with a trophy.
AC Milan has struggled to maintain momentum since the turn of the year and their only victory this year was against a weak Salernitana side. Stefano Pioli’s side will need to up their efforts if they are to get silverware against their archrivals, who are in top form.
Inter Milan would be looking to get revenge in this game after their 3-2 loss against AC Milan earlier this season. This tie has extra motivation as it is a cup final, and Simone Inzaghi’s side is the more confident team heading into this fixture.

The Rossoneri is nine points behind Napoli in the league, but they still have a fixture in the last 16 of the Champions League. AC Milan suffered a painful exit in the Coppa Italia against a ten-man Torino side and dropped points once again in the 2-2 draw against Leece.
Inter Milan began their year with a win over Napoli, handing the Partenopei their first league defeat of the season. They avoided a scare in the Coppa Italia against Parma, beating the Serie B side 2-1 despite trailing in the 80th minute. Like AC Milan, Inter Milan is also in the top four of the Italian Serie A but sits ten points away from the top.
AC Milan has a slightly better record in the Derby della Madonnina with 25 wins compared to Inter Milan’s record of 24 wins.

Inter Milan has not lost a game this year, and the only game they dropped points in was the 2-2 draw against Monza, where they conceded deep into stoppage time. The Nerazzurri has four wins from their last five games, and this run includes victories against Napoli and Hellas Verona. Inter Milan is the only team to defeat Napoli in Italy this season and is in great form to bag the title against AC Milan.
AC Milan has been on a bad run of form since after the World Cup. The Rossoneri has one win from their last seven games, losing four of those games and sharing points on two occasions. AC Milan was two goals behind in just 23 minutes in their previous game against Leece in the league, although they salvaged a point from that game. Both teams are in contrasting form, and punters looking to bet on Italian Super Cup 2022 should back Inter Milan to win.
These two teams have not been solid at the back this season, although they have maintained a good level of attack. Milan and Inter are among the top three highest-scoring teams in Italy. Internazionale has kept just one clean sheet from their last three games, while AC Milan hasn’t kept a clean sheet in three consecutive games. This season, the Derby in the league saw both teams get on the scoresheet and a bet on AC Milan vs Inter Milan FC to see both teams score is a very good bet.
Inter Milan’s number 10 is enjoying a good spell after the World Cup. Lautaro Martinez has scored in all three games for Inter Milan after the international break and is one goal away from hitting double digits in the league for the Nerazzurri. A bet on Lautaro Martinez to score is a very appealing option with good value on Serie A bookies.
AC Milan has a lot of key players sidelined for this clash. Mike Maignan, Alessandro Florenzi, and Ante Rebic are out through injuries. Zlatan Ibrahimovic isn’t expected in the squad until May. Rade Krunic is also unavailable for selection.
Inter Milan has their fair share of injuries, as Romelu Lukaku, Samir Handanovic, and Marcelo Brozovic are unfit for the derby.
The second Derby della Madonnina this season sees AC Milan and Inter Milan battle it out for a trophy in the Italian Super Cup final. You can get the best offers from this game by using our expert betting tips for football and winnable predictions.
