Inter Milan would have been hoping to build a title challenge at the start of this season, but their hopes already look to be fading at this stage of the campaign. They will be looking to edge closer towards the top four with a victory at the San Siro against Salernitana on Sunday.
Serie A Preview
It has been a tricky start to the Serie A season for Inter Milan, as they have needed to contend with a number of injury issues. However, they will be looking to close the gap on the top four this weekend when they host Salernitana. The Italian giants come into the fixture sitting seventh in the league standings, as they have lost four of the nine games that they have played this term.
Their inconsistency is evident from their record over the previous four fixtures, as they have been beaten twice in their last four matches. However, they picked up a second win during the same run in their previous fixture. That win was a hard-fought success on the road against Sassuolo, with Edin Dzeko scoring both goals in the win.
Salernitana have already been harder to beat than Inter Milan this term, as they have lost just three times in nine fixtures. However, wins have also been hard to come by for the Italian side, as they have picked up just two victories. But, they do come into this fixture with form on their side, as they ended a four-game wait for victory last time out.
That victory was achieved against Hellas Verona, as they dramatically stole the points in injury time. The winning goal was scored in the 94th minute by Boulaye Dia.
Inter Milan vs Salernitana Head to Head
The first two Serie A matches between the sides were played last season, with Inter running out commanding winners on both occasions. Both fixtures were won by 5-0 scorelines, which means Salernitana are still waiting for their first goal against Inter in Serie A.
Inter Milan vs Salernitana Prediction
Inter’s very dominant record against Salernitana in the fixtures last season is one that is very difficult to avoid. This season hasn’t started as well as the San Siro giants would have been hoping for, but we still expect them to have more than enough quality to claim victory in this fixture on Sunday.
