Inter Milan
Serie A defending champions Inter Milan continued their impressive run last weekend when they beat Venezia 2-0.
The result was their third consecutive win and also gave them their second clean sheet in a row after going three games without one before that time.
The win also solidified their grip of third place and put them just four points behind table-toppers Napoli.
Their aim in this game will be to get a win and boost their chances of leapfrogging any of the top two should they drop points.
Simone Inzaghi’s side have scored in 33 straight top-flight games and come into this tie with the best home scoring record having scored 18 goals at home in the league this season.
Possible Inter Milan starting line-ups
Samir Handanovic; Federico Dimarco, Alessandro Bastoni, Milan Skriniar; Denzel Dumfries, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Marcelo Brozovic, Ivan Perisic; Lautaro Martinez, Edin Dzeko.
Injured: Matteo Darmian, Andrea Ranocchia, Stefan de Vrij, Alexis Sanchez, Aleksandar Kolarov
Suspended: None
Spezia
Spezia’s second season at the top flight has not gone as smooth as they could have wished with the visitors sitting in 17th place after 14 games.
Their 1-0 loss to Bologna last weekend made it two losses in two games and was also their ninth loss of the season.
The visitors have lost their last four away matches and have the second-worst away form in the league so far.
They will be desperate for some joy in this fixture and will take courage in their famous 1-1 draw with Inter in April.
However, only a miracle will prevent them from being blown away by their hosts, who are also desperate to pick up maximum points from this game.
Possible Spezia starting line-ups
Ivan Provedel; Kelvin Amian, Martin Erlic, Petko Hristov; Emmanuel Gyasi, Viktor Kovalenko, Jacopo Sala, Giulio Maggiore, Simone Bastoni; Daniele Verde; M’Bala Nzola.
Injured: None
Suspended: None
Prediction
Inter Milan 3-0 Spezia
