Must Win Game for Inter in Pursuit of Second Place

The final match of the weekend in the Italian Serie A takes place on Monday night as Inter Milan take on Torino at the San Siro. The hosts begin the weekend in 4th place on 65 points while the visitors are down in 15th place on 34 points.

Inter Milan come into the game having been held to a 2-2 draw at Hellas Verona on Thursday night. Having come back from an early goal to lead the game 2-1 in the second half, Inter Milan conceded an equaliser with just 4 minutes remaining on the clock. That result means Inter Milan have picked up just a single point from their last 2 games having suffered a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Bologna.

Things were looking good for Inter Milan following the lockdown as they picked up victories against Sampdoria, Parma and Brescia, the latter of which was a 6-0 thrashing at the San Siro. They have little trouble when it comes to scoring goals at home and have found the back of the net in each of their last 8 league games.

However, both teams scored in 10 of Inter Milan's last 13 home Serie A matches and they will want to improve defensively. Trends show Inter Milan have kept just one clean sheet in their last 7 home league games.

Torino picked up a crucial 3-1 victory over Brescia on Wednesday night and the 3 points from that game moved them clear of the relegation zone. That result ended a run of 3 straight defeats in Serie A for Torino. They had lost at Cagliari, at home against Lazio and away in the derby to Juventus.

Torino have been struggling to secure victories for some time and trends show they have won only 2 of their last 13 games in all competitions. They have suffered 6 straight defeats away from home in Serie A and have conceded 3 or more goals on 3 occasions in their last 5 on the road.

Of their last 12 Serie A games, Torino FC have conceded 2 or more goals 8 times and only three teams have conceded more goals in Serie A this season.

Looking ahead to the team news and Inter Milan will be without the injured trio of Nicolò Barella, Stefano Sensi and Victor Moses. Striker Lautaro Martinez will hope to start the game having featured as a substitute on Thursday.

Torino will be without the suspended striker Simone Zaza and injured midfielder Daniele Baselli. Every other player should be fit and available for Moreno Longo.

Inter Milan have stuttered of late and will see this match as the perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways. Despite the recent defeat against Bologna, Inter Milan are difficult to beat at home and Torino have been extremely poor on the road. That suggests we should see a home win but there is the possibility of both teams scoring.
