Inter will be looking for a win that will help them maintain their place at the top of the Serie A standings when they face Lazio away on Sunday night.
The hosts travelled to Spain in midweek and, having already qualified for Champions League knock out stage, were desperate for a win to finish top of the group. Maurizio Sarri's side suffered a 0:2 defeat but are on a good run domestically, especially at home. The Eagles carry a run of six consecutive home league games without defeat into this weekend's game and registered four wins in that spell.
Inter Milan have had to watch Napoli and their neighbours AC Milan win the Serie A title in the last two seasons, but they want to change that this season. The Black and Blues are top of the Serie A table having picked up 38 points from 15 games, but with just two points separating them from second-placed Juventus, they cannot afford to drop points this weekend.
Lazio vs Inter Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Lazio have not won in their last five away games in all competitions, but are not to be underestimated at home. Maurizio Sarri's men are unbeaten in their last ten home matches in all competitions, and only failed to score in one of those games.
Inter have been good this season both offensively and defensively. I Nerazzurri have the best defence in this division this season, but history shows that they often struggle to keep a clean sheet against Lazio. Inzaghi's side didn't finish any of the last seven meetings between these two sides and both teams scored in all seven encounters.

Lazio team news
Alessio Romagnoli and Gustav Isaksen will be missing for Lazio this weekend due to calf and hamstring injuries respectively, while Patric is doubtful due to a fever.
Luis Alberto is also expected to miss the visit of Inter after the midfielder picked up his fifth yellow of the campaign against Verona last weekend.
Ciro Immobile has not scored in the last four games, but the experienced striker will continue to lead the line and is likely to be supported by Mattia Zaccagni and Pedro in a three-man attack line.
