Match Preview
A desperate Inter Milan will have their task cut out in Serie A (SA) as they take on a resurgent Crotone side. |
What started as a season of high hopes, is fast fizzing off into a nightmare! After a decent 0-0 draw against Juventus on December 9th, Inter were top of SA. But since then, a terrible run has seen the hosts fall back to fourth in the league (44pts) after 22 games. |
Crotone showed tremendous ‘relegation escape’ skills last season and are showing an appetite to repeat the feat. After a spell in the bottom three, the visitors have now moved up into 17th (19pts), and are two points above the relegation zone. |
It is a matter of lost confidence for Inter as coach Luciano Spalletti is frantically looking for a win of any kind! Their home form is a reflection of that dwindling confidence, as they picked up just two points and two goals in their last three home games. |
There is light at the end of the tunnel for Inter, as Crotone have struggled on the road this season. Only Spal and Benevento have picked up fewer points than Crotone’s seven. |
Key battles: Ivan Perisic (seven goals, six assists) has seen his goals win matches for Inter, while his barren run left his team without steam. Can he rediscover his ‘Midas touch’? |
For a side which scores goals at a premium, on-loan Federico Ricci is a ray of hope. He has already won them three points with a goal and assist against Verona. Can he repeat this fine form? |
Stat attack: Much to the concern of their faithful fans, Inter have not won a match in regular time since back in December 3, in all competitions. |
Inter’s last five SA games have all seen under 2.5 goals scored. |
