AC Milan coach Massimo Allegri claimed on Saturday that the upcoming Milan derby is the most important in recent years and it is more important for Inter.
Allegri was quoted by Sky Italia as saying "I am convinced that this derby is more important to Inter's championship hopes than ours. It is definitely the most important derby in recent years."
Milan saw their 13-point lead narrowed to only two after Leonardo took over on Inter in the winter break, and are to be replaced as Serie A leaders if they lose the derby on April 2nd.
