AC Milan play Inter in their next Serie A game, and the Nerazzurri manager, Christian Chivu, is certainly not going to spend the break preparing.
After the draw against Parma, Milan are in need of a win. Things change quickly, and whilst their record against the top teams is positive, they keep getting hurt by those towards the bottom end of the table.
At present, the Rossoneri are in a solid position, indeed. However, they missed another chance to go top this weekend, even if it would only have been for 24 hours. There is no need to panic, but the Derby looks massive now.
A win could put them top of the league, and after Massimiliano Allegri’s frustrations at the weekend, he will be urging his side for more next time out.
Relaxed approach
On the other hand, the Inter boss, Chivu, is being a bit more relaxed in his approach. Speaking after their win against Lazio, the coach spoke, via MilanPress.
“Tonight I’m enjoying my family, going home, and watching some NFL games. I’ll enjoy a few days off, then I’ll have three days to train those who are staying here. Then I also have a weekend off, and I have to decide what to do with my family. Then, when they get back, we’ll have the usual two days to prepare for the derby”
