Inzaghi’s men look to close gap to top spot

Inter haven’t been completely convincing in Serie A recently but could close the gap to the top of the table if they claim all three points against Torino.

At the moment, the Nerazzurri are fourth, two points behind league leaders Napoli.

Match Preview

Inter Recent Form

Inter have won their last two games 3-2 against Udinese in Serie A and 4-0 against Crvena Zvezda in the Champions League.

Prior to that, they drew against Monza and were defeated by rivals Milan in Serie A, while they earned a 0-0 draw away at Man City in the Champions League.

Inter Injury News

Lautaro Martinez did not start the Champions League game midweek due to a knock he suffered against Udinese. However, he came off the bench to score so should be fine to start against Torino.

Nicolo Barella has a thigh injury and will likely return after the international break.

Here’s how Inter lined up against Crvena zvezda.

Torino Recent Form

Prior to that, they actually went unbeaten six games in a row at the start of the campaign, with Serie A wins against Venezia, Atalanta and Hellas Verona to their name.

Torino Injury News

Emirhan Ilkhan, Zanos Savva and Perr Schurrs are long-term absentees for Torino.

Inter – Player To Watch

Martinez has taken a while to get going this season due to fitness issues but has burst into life recently with three goals in his last two games.

Torino – Player To Watch

Che Adams has made an impressive start to life in Italy, with four goal contributions in six games for Torino.

Inter vs Torino – Prediction

The loss against Milan will have hurt Inter but they have recovered well with two wins in a row, while Torino’s confidence has been hit by two lost in a row. The form that Martinez seems to be gaining should help Inter to a comfortable win.
