Inter will look to continue their great form in the league with yet another win, making it six in a row against Spezia.
Matteo Darmian insists the penalty kick awarded to Inter against Napoli was fair as Inter picked up all the three points at the Stadio Meazza against Napoli with a penalty kick converted by Romelu Lukaku in the second half. There was late drama at San Siro, as Inter thanked goalkeeper Samir Handanovic for getting the better of 10-man Napoli. The Partenopei lost Dries Mertens early to a sprained ankle and it was quite an even game until David Ospina caught Matteo Darmian for a penalty. Lorenzo Insigne saw red for his protests, Romelu Lukaku converted, but Napoli continued to pour forward in search of an equalizer. Handanovic made several great saves and Andrea Petagna was denied by the woodwork.
Inter Milan has been one of the best teams in Italy, and they are second on the Serie A table, a point behind league leaders and local rivals AC Milan, with eight wins, three draws, and a loss from twelve games. Inter Milan have been the highest-scoring team in Serie A, they’ve scored in every single game they’ve played, with thirty goals in twelve games.
Inter have several injuries to account for going into this game and will have to do without Arturo Vidal, Matias Vecino, Andrea Pinamonti, and Radja Nainggolan against Spezia. The home side will have to work hard to get past a determined Spezia outfit.
Inter (3-5-2): Samir Handanovic; Alessandro Bastoni, Stefan de Vrij, Milan Skriniar; Ivan Perisic, Roberto Gagliardini, Marcelo Brozovic, Nicolo Barella, Matteo Darmian; Lautaro Martinez, Romelu Lukaku
Coach Vincenzo Italiano felt Spezia ‘ruined an extraordinary performance’ by letting Bologna bounce back in the 2-2 draw on Wednesday. Bologna recovered from two goals down and threatened to claim all the spoils at the death, but Musa Barrow missed a penalty kick in stoppages. The match was a historic occasion, as Spezia played their first Serie A game at the Stadio Picco, and M’Bala Nzola scored twice to give them a double advantage with less than 30 minutes to go. Spezia, currently 16th in the League, had not an outstanding season so far, with two wins, five draws, and five losses from twelve games. Spezia has had a poor run of form; they are currently on a five-match winless streak, with three draws and two losses.
Spezia has a considerably long list of fitness concerns to address against Inter Milan and will have to do without the likes of Jeroen Zoet, Federico Mattiello, Cristian Dell'Orco, and Juan Manuel Ramos in this game. The away side is unlikely to make drastic changes to its line-up for this fixture.
Spezia (4-3-3): Ivan Provedel; Simone Bastoni, Claudio Terzi, Julian Chabot, Salvador Ferrer; Giulio Maggiore, Matteo Ricci, Nahuel Estevez; Emmanuel Gyasi, M'Bala Nzola, Diego Farias

This will be the first meeting between these sides, as this is Spezia’s first-ever season in the Serie A but Inter, without playing games in Europe must win this type of match.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
