APPIANO GENTILE - "The derby is always a special fixture, it will be a great game." Stefano Vecchi has looked ahead to Friday's match between AC Milan and Inter at Under-19 level (kick-off 18:00) in an interview with Sportitalia.
"AC Milan are a strong side with some solid players and they come into the match on the back of an excellent run. It will be a tough game but we're now used to playing important matches and we hope to perform well tomorrow too."
The Nerazzurri coach was also asked if his side start as favourites given they occupy top spot and enjoy a two-point cushion over their rivals: "At the start of the season, everyone had AC Milan down to win it, so it's big for us to go into the match on an even footing. We're going all the way in every competition and tomorrow we'll go out there to consolidate first place and secure our place in the Final Eight."
