LATEST FROM THE PUMA HOUSE OF FOOTBALL
AC Milan come into the game following a positive draw at home against the leaders Juventus, the second draw for the side since the start of the Poule Scudetto. After going ahead through Dompig's penalty, the Rossonere equalised late on to make it 2-2 through Karczewska's strike. The Rossonere are consistently proving their desire to improve on their league position, playing an attacking brand of football. Coach Bakker's are ready to take to the field with grit and determination to take on the Nerazzurre. 

LATEST FROM INTER
Inter come into the game after a narrow 1-2 loss to Roma, a difficult loss because the Giallorosse came back to win following Wullaert's goal; in general, the side are going through a bit of a turbulent period in terms of results, demonstrating a good ability to react. The Nerazzurre have already shown themselves to be competitive and capable of beating any side, as they sit in second place. Coach Piovani's side will aim to use their home advantage to beat the Rossonere. 

"The defeat to Roma hurts but I can't say anything bad about the girls - said Coach Piovani -, we played well and we will work hard to do even better against AC Milan. For us, this is a starting point, we have to fight until the end and work on the small details, but the attitude has been right".
