Inter Milan vs Genoa Prediction: Inter to cruise to victory

Serie A leaders Inter Milan are on an incredible winning streak, one which they hope to extend at home to Genoa on Monday night.

The promoted visitors have pushed themselves into the safety of mid-table, but they look outmatched for this trip.

Team news

While Inter Milan have put together an incredible run, they’re dealing with injury issues. The hosts are without Hakan Calhanoglu, Marcus Thuram and Alessandro Bastoni heading into this clash with Genoa.

The Grifone are at full fitness bar Alan Matturro heading into this clash. They’re set to match Inter’s 3-5-2 formation on Monday.

Inter Milan to win to nil @ 4/5

Inter have been on another level in Serie A this season, winning 22 of their 26 league games. They head into this clash having won each of their last 11 matches, which has made them contenders in Europe on top of being Italy’s champions elect.

The Nerazzurri went into the weekend 12 points clear of the chasing pack, while they’ve got the league’s best attack and defence this term. They’ve conceded only 12 goals in their 26 matches this season, while they’re letting in just 0.46 goals per match at home.

Inter have won to nil in each of their last five home matches, while they meet a Genoa side who have scored only 11 times across their 13 away trips. The Nerazzurri are unbeaten in nine clashes with the Grifone, winning seven and conceding only one goal.

With the hosts in fantastic form, back them to keep Genoa quiet in another win to nil.

Inter Milan -3 handicap @ 5/1  

Inter aren’t only keeping teams quiet, they’ve also scored 15 goals more than any other side in the league. The Nerazzurri have scored 34 times at home this term, while they’ve stepped it up during this brilliant run of form.

After a string of 1-0 wins against Juventus, Fiorentina and Napoli, Inter have scored four times in four of their last five matches. They have won 4-0 in three of their last four starts, including an incredible win over an Atalanta side who were in fantastic form going into their midweek meeting.

Of Inter’s 11 home league wins, five have come by a four-goal margin or greater. With plenty of comprehensive wins racked up in recent weeks, they should ease by a Genoa side who have lost six times on their travels this term.

Given Inter’s recent run of high-scoring wins, consider them to clear a -3 handicap in this game at 5/1.

Match Odds

Hosts Inter are as short as 1/4 to secure all three points at the San Siro, with the draw available at 9/2 and a shock victory for Genoa priced at 12/1.

With the Nerazzurri having four 4-0 wins at home this season already on their record a repeat of that scoreline appeals at 9/1.
