Rizzoli given Inter-Juventus
Friday 21 November, 2008

Respected Bologna-born referee Nicola Rizzoli will be in charge of his first Derby d'Italia tomorrow.

Italy's two best-supported sides are preparing to face off at San Siro in an epic encounter.

The pressure on the man in the middle will be intense, but Rizzoli has impeccable credentials.

A Derby d'Italia virgin, the 37-year-old was in charge of Inter's 4-0 thrashing of Roma and Juventus' stalemate with Sampdoria.

So far this season, Rizzoli has been in charge of six Serie A games, showing 18 yellow cards and two reds.
