Both sides go into the encounter having won their midweek European ties, but the Inter boss believes that the Rossoneri's 3-2 win at Zenit St Petersburg on Wednesday will give their local rivals added confidence ahead of the match.

"Are we favourites in the derby? No, I think Milan are after their victory over Zenit in St Petersburg," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sport Italia.

Third-placed Inter are currently five points in front of Milan in the Serie A table.
