Inter Vs AC Milan – German Defender To Get The Nod Ahead Of Italy Veteran | OneFootball

Inter defender Yann Bisseck is reportedly the favorite to start in the upcoming clash against AC Milan ahead of Francesco Acerbi.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the German could get the nod in defense ahead of the Italian veteran.

Inter and Milan will lock horns in a high-stakes Serie A showdown on Sunday.

With two points separating the sides ahead of the kick-off, the latest edition of the Milan derby has all the makings of a top-table six-pointer.

Indeed, the Nerazzurri lead the way after beating Lazio 2-0 on the eve of the international break.

Yann Bisseck endured a rough start to the season, making just one start in the opening eight Serie A rounds.

However, Cristian Chivu has handed the 24-year-old two starts in the last three league matches.

Furthermore, the former Aarhus starlet could partner up with Alessandro Bastoni and Manuel Akanji in Sunday’s derby.

Therefore, Acerbi may have to settle for another bench appearance despite his impressive performance against Lazio.
