'Ibrahimovic will play derby with a cigarette in his mouth' - AC Milan striker tipped to shine against Inter by Vieri

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will "play the derby with a cigarette in his mouth", according to Christian Vieri, who has tipped the AC Milan striker to shine against Inter.

Ibrahimovic returned to Milan on a free transfer in January following a successful two-year spell in MLS with the LA Galaxy. He had previously played for the Italian giants between 2010 and 2012, helping them win one Serie A title, before going on to play for Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United.

The 39-year-old has scored 14 goals in 22 appearances since re-joining the Rossoneri, including three at the start of the new season having been awarded a contract extension in August.
