Benevento Review – Can Inzaghi’s men continue their renaissance?

Benevento absolutely swept the Serie B last season, commanding the league title by 18 points. Winning 26 matches and only facing defeat on 4 occasions in 38 matches. So spirits were already high within the camp under the tutelage of former AC Milan striker Filippo Inzaghi.

 

That mood was only intensified on Saturday night after a miraculous win over Claudio Raineri’s Sampdoria after being 2-0. Benevento came away winners of their first Serie A win since 2018.

The danger that benevento possesses is their crafty uses of set pieces. Usually taking them short and then whipping them in once the opposition’s defenders have been moved from their original shape. The likes of Kamil Glik and 2 goal hero on Saturday and captain Caldirola mean that they always pose a danger through set pieces.

The focal point of Benevento’s success this season will rely largely upon the arrival of veteran striker Gianluca Lapadula whose 11 goals last season for US Lecce last season will be pivotal for their aspirations of staying in the Serie A this time round.

Also, the creativity of mainstay Marco Sau will be just as important as it was his 13 goals and 7 assists that had a massive bearing on Benevento’s title run and evident promotion into the top tier of Italian football.

 

Inter Milan Review – Can the Nerazzurri restore order with a composed win this time around?

Inter Milan this season are expected to finally dethrone or at least challenge for the scudetto this season. They let it slip in the last few games last season but they will be demanding the best out of all the players and expecting to continue where they left off from last season.

Keeping the strike force partnership of Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez will be integral to this game on Wednesday afternoon as well for the rest of the season. Last season this duo bagged 37 goals and 7 assists between them.

Proving that they are one of the deadliest partnerships in the league. The Nerazzurri already had a strong squad with the likes of Cristian Eriksen and Milan Skriniar in defence but through Manager Antonio Conte they have only managed to strengthen and solidify the squad.

Summer additions of wide midfielder Achraf Hakimi and Arturo Vidal alongside the permanent signings of Nicolo Barella and Alexis Sanchez has meant that squad depth has been strengthened and should Milan pick up injuries, there is more than enough cover to rectify the loss of key players.

On Saturday, the 4-3 exhilarating win against a strong looking Fiorentina side would have shown Milan where they need to improve for their match on Wednesday night. The space that was afforded to fiorentina on the counter is an area that will need to change.

Inter had 67% possession in the game, and will need to make sure that they use this effectively because the possession they had in the game on Saturday night didn’t account for much in the game after conceding 3 goals.

What does bode well for Inter in this match however, is there away form. Their last 2 away matches has seen them win and keep clean sheets in those games. The last time the Nerazzurri kept three clean sheets in a row in the league was back in september 2013.
