Italian Serie A -Inter Milan vs Salernitana Game Preview

Inter Milan will welcome Salernitana at home on Saturday.

 

Inter Milan:

Inter Milan was the first place in Italian Serie A, but due to their recent poor performance, they finally lost their leading position. This has had a great impact on the morale of the team. Now Inter Milan must effort on defensive sides and the midfield. Edin Dzeko has performed well this seasonl. His experience has also helped other players, so his performance is related to the outcome of the team in the later games.

 

Salenitana:

Salenitana's performance has been fairly stable in recent times. They drew 1-1 with Bologna in the last round, which also made the team not lose in recent rounds. Bologna is still the bottom team in the Serie A, so they are under great pressure in the later games and will certainly go all out. Verdi has performed well in the front line, but in the midfield, Adelson did not do well.So they must effort on the coordination of the midfield and front line in the later games

 

Prediction

It is a difficult stage for Inter Milan. Because young players often make mistakes in the game, which has a great impact on the team. In this game, Inter Milan strives to win, so they are likely to make adjustments in the lineup. The Asian Handicap first odd is Inter Mila-2.25, which fully shows the current gap between the two teams. Salenitana has not enhanced the strength of the team in recent years, nor has it made efforts on defensive sides, The overall performance of the team can only be said to be stable. To sum up, Inter Milan will be trustworthy in this round.
