Milan-Inter, Chivu's press conference LIVE from 14:30

Inter manager Chivu holds pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday's Milan derby at 20:45 CET on Sky.

Inter face AC Milan in the Derby della Madonnina on Saturday, 31 October at 20:45, live on Sky Sport Uno, Sky Sport Calcio, Sky Sport 4K and NOW. Manager Cristian Chivu addressed the media at Appiano Gentile, emphasizing the squad's readiness despite the fixture congestion. Inter arrive in excellent form, having won their last four league matches and drawn level with Lazio at the top of Serie A with 25 points after nine games—a club record in the three-points era since 1994/95. The Nerazzurri have scored 25 goals (2.77 per game, Serie A's best attack) and kept three clean sheets this season. Chivu is expected to field Martinez in goal after Provedel's two-game stint, with Pio Esposito and Thuram leading the attack. Marco Guida will referee the match.
