Inter Milan midfielder Ricky Alvarez feels they can beat AC Milan in Sunday's derby.

The Rossoneri may be joint top of the table with Juventus, but the summer signing from Velez doesn't think that the champions will be favourites.

"We can beat them," he told La Repubblica. "If Inter play in the manner which they know how then we'll win.

"We'll have to attack well and should we not concede on the counter-attack then we can do well in the game.

"I'm looking forward to my first derby from the first minute until the very last. I want to experience all of the emotions possible."
