Rossoneri Round-Up for Sept 20: Daniele Doveri Will Officiate the Derby della Madonnina

Milan will be facing an in-form Inter on Saturday. Inter Milan currently sit on top of the Serie A table with 3 wins while Milan sit in seventh with 2 wins and a loss thus far. The referees for the game have been announced and Milan have Daniele Doveri who is a controversial figure for the club. On one hand, he has officiated majorly over Milan victories but he does have a habit of booking quite a bit. Football Italia point out that Doveri has officiated 12 Milan wins and 1 defeat whilst only 4 Inter wins.

There are still numerous conflicting reports over Milan's starting line-ups and formations but it looks to be a difficult test for the new manager.
