Inter Milan and AC Milan will meet in the 181st 'Derby della Madonnina' at the San Siro on Sunday.
It is the last game day of 2013 and the two teams are enduring mixed fortunes in Serie A, with the Nerazzurri occupying fifth and the Rossoneri nine points behind in 12th.
Walter Mazzarri's side are without a win in four matches, but have been boosted by the news that the Curva Nord will be open for their fans despite a ban for inappropriate chants during a game against Napoli earlier in the season.
Ricky Alvarez will be missing after being dismissed against Napoli last weekend, while Diego Milito and Walter Samuel will also miss out through injury.
However, Massimiliano Allegri, whose team are unbeaten in five but with only one win in that time, will be without Robinho, Valter Birsa and Stephan El Shaarawy.
