Eternal rivals AC Milan and Inter look destined to fight for the Scudetto until the final weekend of the season.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Rossoneri could have one crucial advantage in the Serie A title battle.

Inter maintained their three-point lead over their bitter rivals at the top of the standings with a narrow 1-0 win at Udinese on Saturday.

Lautaro Martinez scored the winning goal at the Bluenergy Stadium, helping the Nerazzurri win a second consecutive league game.

However, the title race is far from over.

Despite sitting behind their rivals in the standings, Milan can take confidence from their light fixture schedule.

Indeed, Massimiliano Allegri’s men are already out of the Coppa Italia, while they failed to qualify for Europe last term.

On the other hand, Inter will face Torino in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals next month.

Furthermore, Cristian Chivu is trying to help his side avoid the Champions League knockout playoffs.

Even if he manages to do so, Inter will still play at least five more games than Milan, increasing the risk of fatigue and injuries.
