Swede still unavailable for Milan derby

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has won an appeal to see his three-match ban reduced to two games. The Swedish international was sent off for hitting out at defender Marco Rossi during Milan's 1-1 draw with Bari in early March. As a result, the 29-year-old could only look on as Milan fell to a costly 1-0 defeat at Palermo during the first game of his ban. Ibrahimovic will serve the final game of his suspension during the Milan derby, a crunch game for both sides with Inter holding a slender two-point lead at the top of Serie A.
