Two sides with very differing goals meet at the San Siro this weekend as relegation threatened Hellas Verona take on an Inter Milan side in the midst of a battle for Champions League qualification.
Andrea Ranocchia looks like being the only absentee for Inter Milan. Likewise, Hellas Verona have just the one injury concern, but it's a significant one, with joint top scorer Moise Kean set to miss out.
It's pretty easy to see why Verona are in the position they are in. They simply cant defend. Allowing opponents an average of over 22 shots per game away from home is never going to work out particularly well, and so it has proved with Hellas conceding two or more goals in 10 of their 13 away fixtures to date. Not many teams would have the attacking prowess to overcome that sort of handicap and needless to say Verona don't.
Inter's form has certainly dipped a little of late, with only two wins in their past six at the San Siro. They haven't lost in that time though and with Mauro Icardi arriving on a high following his four goal salvo ahead of the international break, the home side can at least be expected to hit Verona's average of two goals conceded per game. Do that and they will almost certainly bag the three points.
Prediction: Inter Milan 2 - 1 Hellas Verona
