⁠Inter Milan vs Torino Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Nerazzurri are starting to deliver the results.

Inter Milan have begun their title defence in decent form. But they are still far from their brilliant best which saw them win the Serie A 2023-24 with a record 91 points showing their dominance throughout the season. This season, however, after their early poor performance the team is starting to return to their brilliant best, securing consecutive victories on the road. 

Simone Inzaghi’s side have also begun their run in the UEFA Champions League brightly playing a goalless draw against Manchester City in the first game followed by a 4-0 dominant win over Red Star Belgrade to kick off their winning run. Now, the focus will be to start winning games in Serie A as they aim to return to the top. 

Meanwhile, Torino have made a good start to the season. They are currently languishing in the fifth position in the standings, level on points with their counterparts Inter. Paolo Vanoli’s side have gathered 11 points from the opening six matches with three wins, two draws, and losing one against Lazio in the last game.

Torino also suffered a blow in their hope of progressing to the next Coppa Italia round after being defeated by Empoli in the Round of 32.

Lautaro Martinez (⁠Inter Milan)

The Argentinian international is starting to produce goals for the team after a slow start to the season. Lautaro Martinez has scored three goals in the last two games, scoring a brace against Udinese and a goal against Red Star Belgrade in the midweek clash in the UEFA Champions League. After a successful campaign last term where he won the Golden Boot in both Serie A and Copa America, he will aim to play another crucial role here to help his side register the three points. 

Duvan Zapata (Torino)

The Colombian international has made a brilliant start to the new season scoring two goals in six matches to help Torino occupy a good position in the table. After a productive season last term which saw him score 12 goals and register another four assists, Zapata doesn’t seem to stop anytime soon, already showing flashes of his brilliance in recent games.
