MILAN – The Rossoneri are hosting Palermo Wendesday evening at 20.45 CET, in Round 11 of Serie A. The match against Delio Rossi’s team will be Milan’s second championship midweek fixture this season.
The two teams have met 23 times at the San Siro, with Milan winning nineteen, drawing two and losing two matches.
In the process, the Rossoneri have scored fifty-six goals, while conceding fifteen. Seven penalties have been awarded to Milan and one to the Rosaneri.
The last Milan-Palermo was won by the Sicilians in Round 16 last season: Delio Rossi’s team beat the Rossoneri 2-0 thanks to goals from Miccoli (4’) and Bresciano (62’) on December 13, 2009.
The last Milan success dates back to the previous season, when on April 26, 2009, the team coached by Carlo Ancelotti won 3-0 thanks to two converted penalties from Kakà (10’ and 57’) and a goal from Inzaghi (20’).
Another Milan victory came in the 2007-2008 season, in Round 24, when the Rossoneri kept the points at home with a 2-1 win. In the game played on February 24, 2008, Palermo took the lead through Bresciano in the 9th minute, which was cancelled out by Massimo Ambrosini on 25 minutes. The match was eventually decided by Filippo Inzaghi’s strike one minute into injury time.
In the 2006-2007 season, however, Palermo managed to escape the San Siro with a 2-0 victory. On October 24, 2008, second half goals from Bresciano (48’) and Amauri (74’) won the Round 7 match for the Sicilians.
The last draw at the San Siro between the two teams dates back to Round 37 of the 2004-2005 season. The game, played on May 20, 2005, saw Milan take the lead with Serginho in the eighth minute, but Costacurta’s own goal one minute later levelled the score. Serginho scored his second on 18 minutes and Milan got another from Tomasson in the 32nd minute, but Toni’s converted penalty (77’) and Simone Barone’s strike with two minutes remaining on the clock meant that points were shared in the end.
The game with the highest score, and the biggest margin at the same time, was played in the 1950-1951 season: on February 18, 1951, Milan demolished Palermo with a 9-0 victory thanks to goals from Burini (10', 51', 76'), Liedholm (28', 46'), Gren (37'), Nordahl (49'), Santagostino (54', 62').

Defender Walter Samuel Could Be Out For Up To Eight Months - Former Inter Doctor
Defender Walter Samuel Could Be Out For Up To Eight Months - Former Inter Doctor
Walter Samuel's season at Inter is over after sustaining a ruptured cruciate ligament injury at the weekend.
Walter Samuel's season is over and he is not expected to return for eight months, according to former Inter doctor Piero Volpi.Samuel clashed knees with Brescia's Andrea Caracciolo during the 1-1 draw on Saturday. Inter confirmed he suffered a "rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament" and Volpi said it is an injury that will ensure his season is over.
"I think he will be out for six to eight months, I was at the stadium and I knew instantly it was a bad one," he told Diretta Stadio 7Gold. "The movement of the knee during the clash was not natural."
Inter's full statement confirming surgery reads:
"The tests have found a serious rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and collateral ligament in the right knee.
"Over the next few days we will plan the reconstructive surgery."
Captain Javier Zanetti knows the extent and implications of the injury are harsh, but offered full support to his colleague.
"Walter has already shown he knows how to come back stronger than before, we are all behind him," he told the club's official site.
"We are all waiting for him. He is one that never gives up."

Inter is one of the most supported clubs in Italy, according to an August 2007 research by Italian newspaper La Repubblica.[21] Historically, the largest section of Inter fans from the city of Milan have been the middle-class bourgeoisie Milanese, while AC Milan fans are typically working-class and a significant portion are migrants from Southern Italy.[16]
The traditional ultras group of Inter is Boys San; they hold a significant place in the history of the ultras scene in general due to the fact that they are one of the oldest, being founded in 1969. Politically, the ultras of Inter are usually considered right-wing and they have good relationships with Lazio. As well as the main group of Boys San, there are four more significant groups: Viking, Irriducibili, Ultras, and Brianza Alcoolica.
Inter's most vocal fans are known to gather in the Curva Nord, or north curve of the Giuseppe Meazza stadium. This longstanding tradition has led to the Curva Nord being synonymous with the club's most die-hard supporters, who unfurl banners and wave flags in support of their team.
Inter have several rivalries, two of which are highly significant in Italian football; firstly, they participate in the inter-city Derby della Madonnina with AC Milan; the rivalry has existed ever since Inter splintered off from Milan in 1908.[16] The name of the derby refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose statue atop the Milan Cathedral is one of the city's main attractions. The match usually creates a lively atmosphere, with numerous (often humorous or offensive) banners unfolded before the match. Flares are commonly present, but they also led to the abandonment of the second leg of the 2005 Champions League quarter-final matchup between Milan and Inter on 12 April after a flare thrown from the crowd by an Inter supporter struck Milan keeper Dida on the shoulder.[22]
The other most significant rivalry is with Juventus; the two participate in the Derby d'Italia. Up until the 2006 Serie A match-fixing scandal, which saw Juventus relegated, the two were the only Italian clubs to have never played below Serie A. In recent years, post-Calciopoli, Inter have developed a rivalry with Roma, having finished runners-up to Inter in all but one of Inter's five Scudetto winning seasons between 2005 and 2010. The two sides have also contested in 5 Coppa Italia finals and four Supercoppa Italiana finals since 2006. Other clubs such as Bologna, and Atalanta, are also considered to be amongst their rivals.

FC Internazionale Milano as a company
Club President Massimo Moratti has outlined plans to build a new stadium in time for the 2012–2013 Serie A season in order to boost commercial and game day revenues as well as for use at UEFA Euro 2016. Inter's current stadium, the Giuseppe Meazza is owned by the city of Milan, which takes about half of the revenue earned from game day tickets.
According to The Football Money League published by consultants Deloitte, in the 2008–09 season, Inter recorded revenues of €196.5 million, ranking 9th place behind Juventus and ahead of AC Milan in the rankings. The club beat their previous season earnings of €172.9 million by a significant margin and are one spot higher this season than last. For the first time since The Football Money League's inception, Inter have beaten city rivals AC Milan in the rankings.
Revenue percentages were divided up between matchday (14%, €28.2m), broadcasting (59%, €115.7m, +7%, +€8m) and commercial (27%, €52.6m, +43%, €15.8m). Kit sponsors Nike and Pirelli contributed €18.1m and €9.3m respectively to commercial revenues, while broadcasting revenues were boosted €1.6m (6%) by Champions League distribution.
For the 2010/2011 season, Serie A clubs will start negotiating club TV rights collectively rather than individually. This is predicted to result in lower broadcasting revenues for Inter, with smaller clubs gaining from the loss.
Inter's matchday revenues amounted to only €1.1m per home game, compared to €2.6m among the top six earners.
Deloitte expressed the idea that issues in Italian football, particularly matchday revenue issues were holding Inter back compared to other European giants, and developing their own stadia would result in Serie A clubs being more competitive on the world stage.[25]

The Inter Logo
The Inter Logo
One of the founders of Inter, a painter named Giorgio Muggiani, was responsible for the design of the first Inter logo in 1908. The first design incorporated the letters 'FCIM' in the center of a series of circles that formed the badge of the club. The basic elements of the design have remained constant even as finer details have been modified over the years. In 1998, the club came out with a brand-new iteration of the club crest, sticking to the original design while adding minor aesthetic updates.
Colors

| Ambrosiana Inter Kit |
Since its founding in 1908, Inter have worn black and blue stripes. It is rumored that black was chosen to represent night and blue was chosen to represent the sky.[15] Aside from a short period during the World War II, Inter continued to wear the black and blue stripes, earning them the nickname Nerazzurri.[16] For a period of time, however, Inter was forced to abandon their black and blue uniforms. In 1928, Inter's name and philosophy made the ruling Fascist Party uneasy. As a result, during the same year the 20-year-old club was merged with Unione Sportiva Milanese. The new club was named Ambrosiana SS Milano after the patron saint of Milan.[17] The flag of Milan (the red cross on white background) replaced the traditional black and blue.[18] After World War II when the Fascists had fallen from power the club reverted to their original name and colors. In 2008, Inter celebrated their centenary with a red cross on their away shirt. Reminiscent of the flag of their city, the pattern continues to be used on their third kit to this day.
The Serpent
Animals are often used to represent football clubs in Italy, the grass snake, called Il biscione or Serpente representing Inter. The snake is an important symbol for the city of Milan, appearing often in Milanese heraldry as a coiled viper with a man in its jaws. The symbol is famous for its presence on the coat of arms of the House of Sforza (who ruled over Italy from Milan during the Renaissance period), the city of Milan, the historical Duchy of Milan (a 400 year state of the Holy Roman Empire), and Insubria (a historical regional area which the city of Milan falls within). For the 2010–11 season Inter's away kit will feature the serpent.
