Inter Milan Preview – Faint Scudetto hopes hinge on victory?
For entertainment purposes, look no further than Inter Milan (3rd – W18 D7 L3). Three games involving Antonio Conte’s side since the Serie A restart in mid-June have produced an abundance of goals (at least three in each, with both teams netting on each occasion), exciting late-game drama (no less than five scored beyond the 80th minute), and even a forlorn looking manager who knows his side have it all to do if they’re to catch the leading duo.
After Sunday’s thrilling yet hard-fought win in Parma, with Inter coming from behind to pick up a result for the second match running having been held to a 3-3 draw at home to Sassuolo the game before, the Nerazzuri trail second-placed Lazio by four points, who are a further four behind leaders Juventus. If Conte is to secure the most prized asset in Italian football in his first full season, he’ll need to bridge an eight-point deficit.
A home fixture with 19th-placed Brescia shouldn’t pose very many problems, in principle that is. Inter, though, have tended to make matters harder than they are, mainly on account of their porous defence, which has kept only one clean sheet in its last eleven Serie A matches. All of their previous four victories in the league, meanwhile, were in spite of conceding, even at San Siro where four of the last five wins fit this description.
Brescia Preview – Le Rondinelle looking to spring early surprise in Milan?
A struggling Brescia (19th – W4 D6 L18) cannot afford to be throwing away leads in their situation, but that was exactly what has transpired in both their fixtures since the resumption. Netting from the penalty spot first time out in Florence, where Fiorentina would power their way back into proceedings and were unfortunate to have only drawn 1-1, the Lombardy outfit would then squander a two-goal lead at home to Genoa on Sunday to draw 2-2.
The only positive to be had was they didn’t lose either, while this now constitutes their joint-longest unbeaten sequence (2 games) of the entire season. It also helped them climb off the foot of the table, above SPAL on account of scoring more goals over the course of the campaign but, and most important of all, still a significant margin from safety with 17th-placed Sampdoria eight points better off.
Diego Lopez is only too aware that his team need wins, and perhaps that explains their quick start to games following the restart, scoring all three goals thus far inside the opening 20 minutes. And if ever the age old adage of scoring too soon applied to a team, it is Brescia. As their only tastes of away success this season (W3 D2 L9) seen them net the game’s opening goal shortly after half-time, before going on to win 1-0.

Inter Milan Vs Brescia Betting Advice
Considering Brescia‘s three away wins this season all came via 1-0 scorelines, the chances of them triumphing at the San Siro, against a free-flowing but often flawed Inter Milan side, appear remote at best. Inter simply don’t do dull, and certainly not since the restart, which renders any likelihood of Brescia producing another smash-and-grab 1-0 win all but dead.
Inter Milan Vs Brescia – Key Facts
- Across their previous 11 matches in Serie A, Inter Milan have seen nine produce at least one goal for both teams – though only four produced victories for the Nerazzurri.
- Brescia remain the lowest scorers in Serie A away games this season (10 goals) despite netting in ten of fourteen said games so far.
- The last three Serie A meetings delivered Both Teams To Score, while Brescia‘s last – and only – win at the San Siro dates back to 2004 (W1 D3 L6 overall away to Inter).
Inter’s habit for conceding goals could come to an end here. No team this season has netted fewer away goals than Brescia’s 10, though the fact they failed to score on just four of fourteen outings suggests they are capable of contributing. Ultimately the hosts should prevail, but with a defence you simply can’t trust, adding goals to their slim price makes sense. Inter Milan & Over 2.5 Goals has already landed 14 times in 2019/20.
