Inter Milan vs Roma Prediction
The Nerazzurri have suffered two consecutive losses without scoring and will look to return to goalscoring ways here. They have won their last four league games against the visitors, keeping three clean sheets, and will look to build on that record. They are unbeaten at home in Serie A since September.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alessandro Bastoni will serve suspensions here due to the accumulation of yellow cards. Marcus Thuram, Piotr Zielinski, and Denzel Dumfries were spotted in training earlier this week. Thuram is not yet an option for this match, while Zielinski and Dumfries will likely start from the bench.
Roma registered their first win of the month last week and will look to continue that form here. Notably, they have scored one goal apiece in their last seven league games. They have kept clean sheets in four of their last five away games. Notably, their last two wins against Inter have been registered at San Siro.
Claudio Ranieri recovered defender Saud Abdulhamid earlier this week, but Paulo Dybala and Victor Nelsson remain sidelined for the trip to Milan.
The capital club have been in great form recently and will look to avenge their home loss from earlier this season. Nonetheless, Inter have a good home record in Serie A, and the two sides are expected to play out a closely contested draw.
