Raționament
  • Inter Milan have won eight of their nine home league games this season, including each of their last five.
  • The Nerazzurri have seen over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven matches after thrashing AC Milan 3-0 in Wednesday’s Supercoppa Italiana.
  • Empoli have only been shut out by Napoli in their last six games.
  • Only eight Serie A teams have conceded more goals than Inter’s 24 this term.

Nerazzurri in fine form

Inter Milan clinched the first trophy of the domestic Italian season by beating rivals Milan to win the Supercoppa Italiana in midweek, continuing their strong run since the World Cup break. Simeone Inzaghi’s men could be among the chief beneficiaries of Juventus’ 15-point deduction, and they will be confident of boosting their top-four hopes by beating Empoli on Monday, having gone unbeaten in their last seven games.

Inter have won six of those matches, including four of their five contests since club football resumed earlier this month – putting them top of Serie A’s form table. The Nerazzurri have also provided plenty of entertainment, with five of their last seven matches containing over 2.5 goals, and only Napoli (44) scoring more than their 38 Serie A goals this campaign. At the other end, however, Inter can be vulnerable – only eight teams have a worse defensive record in the Italian top flight this season.

Empoli, meanwhile, may provide the hosts with a stern test after going unbeaten in four games either side of the World Cup, with Monday’s win against Sampdoria lifting Paolo Zanetti’s men to 12th, 13 points clear of danger. While Empoli have not always been free-flowing this campaign, they have only been shut out by leaders Napoli in their last six games, netting multiple goals in two of their last four – including at Lazio.

Inter’s attacking form to continue

With Inter in fine form in front of goal but displaying a vulnerable side on occasion this term, we’re backing the hosts to win a game containing over 2.5 goals on Monday.

Meanwhile, both teams have scored in four of Inter’s last six league games, making an entertaining 3-1 home win a decent correct score prediction.
