In an eagerly anticipated Serie A encounter, Inter Milan will lock horns with Genoa at the iconic Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
This clash, marking the culmination of Gameweek 27, sees the table-topping Inter aiming to extend their lead and potentially seal Juventus’ fate in the title race, while mid-table Genoa looks to disrupt the hosts’ plans.
Inter Milan’s Formidable Form
Inter Milan, under the stewardship of Simone Inzaghi, has been nothing short of sensational, embarking on an 11-game winning streak across all competitions.
Their recent demolition of Atalanta by 4-0 underscored their dominance, propelling them 12 points clear at the summit of Serie A.
With a perfect record in 2024, Inter stands as the team to beat, boasting both an unstoppable attacking force and an impenetrable defensive line.
The team’s home record is particularly daunting, with eight consecutive wins, seven of which have come with clean sheets, showcasing their defensive prowess.
Most Likely Goalscorer for Inter Milan
Lautaro Martinez, Inter’s sharpshooter, has been in electrifying form, finding the net in his last three league appearances. Despite never scoring against Genoa,
Martinez will be keen to break this duck and add to his impressive tally of 23 goals this season.
Genoa’s Resilience
Genoa, managed by Alberto Gilardino, can approach this fixture with cautious optimism.
Having lost only once in their last 11 league matches, they remain a side capable of causing upsets. Their draw in the reverse fixture, thanks to Radu Dragusin’s equalizer, will serve as a confidence booster, although Genoa will miss his services this time around.
Genoa’s recent improvement on the road, transitioning from a seven-game winless streak to a five-match unbeaten run, hints at their growing resilience.
However, they must address late-game vulnerabilities that have seen them concede in the dying moments of matches.
