AC Milan to host Inter in Serie A matchweek 10 at San Siro on October 31st
AC Milan will welcome Inter Milan to the San Siro on October 31st (BST) in their Serie A 2026-27 matchweek 10 fixture, the Milan Derby at the league venue shared by both clubs.
AC Milan arrive off a 2-4 defeat to Bologna that the article describes as their first loss of the Serie A season, with the report adding that "their defence was all over the place, and they did not do well in attack." The Rossoneri have five wins from nine league matches and sit fifth on the table, and the piece calls this home game "a big test for the Portuguese head coach" and says "a win here will surely play a big role in their title battle this season."
Inter sit top of the Serie A standings, unbeaten and with eight wins from nine games, a run the article describes as a strong start to their title defence under Cristian Chivu. The Nerazzurri come into the derby after a 2-0 victory over Venezia, a win the report says was achieved despite a lack of finishing in the final third, and it adds that Inter will be "fully confident heading into the Milan Derby."
The preview highlights Alphadjo Cissè as a notable performer for AC Milan, describing him as a 20-year-old who "came up with another fantastic performance" in the 2-4 loss to Bologna when he scored a brace. Marcus Thuram is identified as Inter's key forward; the article states he produced an "average performance" versus Venezia and notes he is a 29-year-old with "seven goal contributions in eight league appearances this season."
AC Milan are reported to be missing several players through injury: Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Mario Gila, Matteo Gabbia, Alexis Saelemaekers, Samuel Chukwueze and Diego Moreira are "not going to be in action" while Pietro Terracciano "might also sit out due to physical discomfort." Inter are listed as without Curtis Jones, John Stones, Benjamin Pavard, Luis Henrique, and Lautaro Martinez due to injury.
The article supplies projected lineups as follows: AC Milan — Maignan (GK); Tomori, De Winter, Pavlovic, Estupinan; Modric, Rabiot; Hutchinson, Cisse, Pulisic; and Inter — Ramos Martinez (GK); Bisseck, Bastoni, Akanji; Diouf, Sucic, Calhanoglu, Zielinski, Dimarco; Esposito, Thuram.
