Monza vs Inter

Serie A title contender Inter Milan will hope to follow up its biggest result of the season so far away to a spirited Monza.

After starting the season with a six-match winless run, the Brianzoli cut ties with manager Giovanni Stroppa and promoted former youth coach Raffaele Palladino to the first-team hot seat. A shot at the Scudetto once again looks plausible for the Nerazzurri after Edin Dzeko’s second-half decider on Wednesday handed pace-setter Napoli its first defeat of the season so far, with Simone Inzaghi’s side now looking to climb from fourth and within five points of the summit. Inter Milan and Monza each had positive returns to the Serie A slate in midweek following the 2022 World Cup break, but both will be out to ensure one another’s misery when the local rivals face off as top-flight opponents for the first time on Saturday.
