This is a potentially decisive result in the title race, as leaders Inter are currently four points clear at the top with a game in hand, while Napoli caught up to Milan in second place.

Joaquin Correa and Robin Gosens are injured, but January signing Felipe Caicedo is left out too.

Lautaro Martinez and Dzeko lead the way, as Alexis Sanchez only returned yesterday from international duty with Chile.

Calhanoglu scored against his former teammates when these sides drew 1-1 back on November 7.

Denzel Dumfries gets the nod rather than Matteo Darmian on the right flank, so will be up against Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao.

Kessie is back after the Africa Cup of Nations and is again used in a more advanced role, already tested out in the 4-2 win over Empoli in December, to help neutralise Marcelo Brozovic.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Ante Rebic and Simon Kjaer are injured, with Fode Ballo-Toure still on international duty, so Giroud plays his first Milan Derby.

Fikayo Tomori is only fit for the bench, so Pierre Kalulu takes the centre-back role.

Inter: Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez

Milan: Maignan; Calabria, Kalulu, Romagnoli, Theo Hernandez; Tonali, Bennacer; Saelemaekers, Kessie, Leao; Giroud
