A victory to the home team is anticipated from this game if the league table is a guide to future results. The Inter fans are optimistic that the gap between 3rd and Salernitana's 20th spot in the table will show on the grass.

Insights:
  • Inter have the most scored goals (55) in Serie A
  • Salernitana have the fewest scored goals (20) in Serie A

Salernitana have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Only a few days to rest for the team playing at home, as they were involved in a Coppa Italia fixture only three days earlier. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Milan.

Inter form and stats

29 points is a decent return from 13 Serie A games here at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza for Inter. The data says 9 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Inter, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Inter haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 223 minutes ago. Dzeko scored that one.

Bastoni was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.75 out of 10. The defender Bastoni won 6 of 8 duels.

A 0-0 draw away in the Serie A before that, with Genoa the opponent.

Inter are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Stadio Giuseppe Meazza with a victory. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. In their match history four earlier games are comparable to this one, and Inter has won four times, drawn zero and lost zero. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Inter has won by at least two goals three times when in this position.

There will be little rest for Inter after this match as they are travelling to Liverpool for a Champions League game in only four days.

Inter can score goals in their home matches. After 13 league matches they have found the net 30 times. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Inter have conceded only 12 goals.

Salernitana form and stats

There's been little loot from Salernitana's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 12 away games in the Serie A. Salernitana only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 2 draws. Sharing is caring, but Salernitana are perhaps overdoing it with their four draws in a row.

Salernitana's last game was the home draw against Bologna (1-1). Midfield player Éderson was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.41/10. Éderson dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times and had 41 successful passes (of 46 total).

A draw for Salernitana before that, at their own venue hosting Milan (2-2).

The attacking power of Salernitana when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 12 league matches away. The Salernitana manager Nicola has some worries about the defense as 27 goals have been conceded in these travels.
