The home side are bottom in 20th place after collecting only three points from their opening eight matches. Venezia’s record consists of one victory and seven defeats, leaving them under pressure to halt their poor run.

Their only win came against Napoli, when they secured a 1-0 success. However, that result was followed by a 1-0 defeat by Genoa, meaning Venezia have not been able to build any momentum from their victory.

Inter begin the fixture in second place with 22 points. They trail leaders Lazio by three points and will have the opportunity to maintain their challenge near the top of the Serie A standings with another win.

The Milan side have won their past three matches. Following a 3-1 victory over Bologna, Inter defeated Fiorentina 2-1 before overcoming Shakhtar in the Champions League. They secured a 1-0 win in that match despite playing part of the game with one fewer player.

Inter are also strongly favoured by the available match prediction. Their recent record against Venezia supports that assessment: Inter won the most recent meeting 5-1 and have prevailed in each of their past five matches against their opponents.

The prediction for the fixture is an Inter victory with a goal handicap, with the Milan club expected to take all three points.

Inter’s current three-match winning sequence, their position just three points behind Lazio and Venezia’s position at the foot of the table all point to a clear contrast in form before the meeting. However, the match must still be settled on the pitch, with Venezia seeking a response after their defeat by Genoa and Inter attempting to continue their run of victories.
