The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Inter Milan lock horns with Maurizio Sarri's Lazio side in an important clash at the San Siro on Sunday.
Inter Milan vs Lazio Preview
Lazio are currently in second place in the Serie A standings and have been in impressive form so far this season. The away side slumped to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Torino last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent this season. The Nerazzurri edged Juventus to a 1-0 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
