The Derby d'Italia (Italian for "Derby of Italy") was coined back in 1967 by the famous Italian sports journalist Gianni Brera as the bi-annual football fixture in Italian football between Internazionale and Juventus. The name was also given to this fixture as Inter and Juventus were the only two teams never to be relegated from Serie A, AC Milan twice being relegated in the 1980s (though Juventus were recently relegated for the first time for the 2006/2007 for their part in Calciopoli).
The matchup between Juventus and Inter is one of the most intense derby matches in Italy between two teams not from the same city. The two teams are also ranked first and second in wins and goals in Serie A history.
