Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Inter, 2nd position with 40 points and a positive goal difference of +14
AC Milan, 6th position with 38 points and a positive goal difference of +8

Inter claim the bragging rights to rule Milan.  Inter won the Serie A Week 21 game defeating AC Milan on Sunday 5 February 2023 at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium in Milan, Italy.  Inter continue their sprint race to keep up the race for the Scudetto remaining in the 2nd position with 43 points and -13 points below Napoli with 56 points.  On the other hand, the crisis for Milan is just obvious and falling down.

Inter secured the 178th Derby thanks to the goal by Lautaro Martínez. AC Milan collected the third consecutive defeat in the league. In the next round, Milan will play at home against Torino while Inter will visit Sampdoria.

Inter opened the score in the 34th minute. Argentinean forward Lautaro Martínez defeated AC Milan goalkeeper Onana with a headed shot following a corner conceded by Davide Calabria.

✅  Stats before the game. Milan have won their last two league derbies against Inter, and it is since the period between November 2002 and February 2004 that the Rossoneri have not achieved more consecutive wins against the Nerazzurri in Serie A (four in that case). After a 3-2 first leg win, AC Milan could win both derbies against Inter in a single Serie A season for the first time since 2010/11 under Massimiliano Allegri. Inter have lost their last two home derbies against Milan in the league (both 1-2), as many as in the previous 16 (W11, D3). No team has conceded fewer goals than Inter in home games this league season: five, equal to Roma. Only Napoli (28) have earned more points than the Nerazzurri in home games in Serie A 2022/23 (24 in 10 matches). Milan have lost their last three matches in all competitions, the Rossoneri could record four defeats in a row for the first time since the period between January and February 2017 under Vincenzo Montella in charge. Inter lead by 67 wins to 54, completing the picture 56 draws – against no team have the Rossoneri suffered more defeats in the top division (67 also against Juventus), while for the Nerazzurri the 56 draws against Milan represent a record in the tournament.
