Inter Milan is the only team in Italy that has never been relegated from the top league, with a rich history and heritage. They have won 20 league titles, 9 Coppa Italia titles, 7 Italian Super Cups, as well as 3 UEFA Champions League titles and 3 UEFA Europa League titles. In their last home game in the Italian Super Cup, they easily defeated Atalanta 2-0 and have now achieved five consecutive victories in official matches. Although they have one fewer match played, they are level on points with the top of the league and are currently ranked third.
AC Milan is an extremely popular team in Italy, nicknamed the "Rossoneri." They have won the Serie A title 19 times and the UEFA Champions League 7 times, with their achievements in the Champions League second only to Real Madrid. However, this season their overall performance has not been good. In their last Italian Super Cup match, they narrowly defeated Juventus 1-2 away from home, and in their last five official matches, they have a record of three wins and two draws, ranking eighth in the league. It should be noted that their offensive capabilities have significantly declined, scoring only seven goals in their last six official matches, averaging just 1.17 goals per game.
Overall, both teams are top-tier giants in Serie A. Inter Milan has excellent attacking and defensive capabilities, with an aggressive playing style and a strong ability to remain unbeaten. Their home and away performance is outstanding. In their last seven encounters with AC Milan, they have achieved six wins and one loss, a completely overwhelming record. On the other hand, AC Milan has experienced a significant decline this season, with decent defense but lacking offensive power. Therefore, in this clash between the giants, Inter Milan is more deserving of being favored.
