When Inter played Milan for the first derby of the season last year, he showed no mercy and hurt Milan a lot  scoring a hat-trick in the 3-2 win for the Nerazzurri.

Coming into this season’s first derby, Inter captain Icardi wants to score again, especially since he once again has returned from an international break without having scored a goal. But the key man for Inter will without any doubt be Inter’s Belgian midfielder Radja Nainggolan, at least according to Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

According to the report: “After the extra work done at Appiano Gentile last weekend in order to find the best physical condition, Nainggolan will be assigned a particularly delicate double task: first of all he will have to put a lot of pressure on Biglia, thereby stopping Milan from creating their game through the Argentinian midfielder, rendering Milan less effective. Then he will have to continue to upset the opponents defense through his offensive qualities that Inter coach Luciano Spalletti likes so much.”
