AC Milan midfielder Andrea Bertolacci up for Inter test

AC Milan midfielder Andrea Bertolacci is up for the derby on Sunday against Inter Milan.

The Rossoneri face their city rivals in the Derby della Madonnina on Sunday evening.

"We definitely expected to win by more against Alessandria," Bertolacci admitted to Milan Channel, following last night's 1-0 win in the Coppa Italia against Alessandria.

“Credit to them, because they're very well-organised. We won yesterday, now let's focus on the derby. In the first game we didn't deserve to lose, it was one moment which decided the game.

“Now we have to concentrate, Sunday will be a different game because we're at home, and because we want to win for ourselves and the fans.

“We'll have to be good to cause problems for Inter. We're thinking about ourselves, no-one else.

“We can say that we shouldn't think about the table, but it's not easy. It's an important match, especially since it's a head-to-head confrontation."
