    Since there's very little talk of Sunday football happening in the other thread

    Juve v Inter kicks off in 2 on ESPN

    PSG locking horns with Bordeaux at the PdP in Ligue 1.

    Sky Sports not showing any live La Liga games this evening, couple of games in progress at the moment though.

    This is the Italian equivalent of Barca V Real or Us v United; some people forget that.

    EDIT: It's also amazing how many players Inter still have from their treble winning season, yet they've struggled badly since Jose left.

    Not that I want to turn this into another debate

    Interesting match in the sense that, Inter desperately need to win but could pretty much hand Milan the title if they do

    I'd say Juve/AC is traditionally the biggest one after the Madonnina.

    Traditionally Inter v Juve is bigger.

    It's not called the Derby d'Italia for nothing.

    Ranieri's Inter are a shambles, Juve are working on throwing the title away. All set up for an interesting game.

    From Wiki:

    The matchup between Juventus and Inter is perhaps the most intense match in Italy between two teams from different cities. The two teams are also ranked first and second in wins and goals in Serie A history. The match features two clubs who have never been relegated from the Serie A (prior to the Calciopoli scandal in which Juventus were forcefully relegated for their role in it
    ).

    I think Wiki is helpful in a lot of instances.

    It's just sometimes people update it and edit it with inaccuracies.

    Difficult to say, as both clubs - particularly Inter - have struggled over the last few weeks.

    Matri and Pirlo are having cracking seasons for Juve - the latter is playing as well as he was when we played them in Istanbul. Vucinic is often decent entertainment (be it foul-mouthed rants at the ref or goals).
    For Inter, Milito has rediscovered a bit of form lately, Forlan continues to struggle.

    Maicon is always worth a watch, the evergreen Zanetti obviously.

    Pirlo has been amazing since he moved to Juve in the summer. He'd gone a bit stale at Milan, but he's easily been one of the best performers in the league since leaving.

    He is a legend to be fair; still cannot believe he's still going.

    Best football show ever. Brings back so many good memories. Didn't know it was on Youtube. Might watch a few later. Loved the bald chap sitting down in the sun of Milan coffee and paper just talking football. Brilliant.

    Btw Juve should be a few up by now. Inter had few break aways but otherwise all Juve.

    AC Jimbo is great. He does a weekly Guardian podcast.

    Cheers, finally able to watch it and its half time.

    Seems to have been a fair few chances.
