Hellas Verona preview: Struggling Verona
Hellas Verona have endured a very difficult start to the campaign for the home team as they hover just above the bottom three and the relegation places with five draws and four defeats in their nine matches so far this season.
Former Empoli boss Paolo Zanetti is under pressure as Verona come into this one on the back of a comfortable 3-1 hammering at the hands of Como at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in their most recent outing the other day.
Inter Milan preview: Impressive Inter
Internazionale begin the tenth match day of the Serie A table as they sit three points behind Napoli and Roma at the top-of-the-table in Italy’s top-flight with six victories and three draws so far.
The Nerazzurri did lose 3-1 to Napoli last weekend before they then managed to ease past Fiorentina by three goals to nil at San Siro in midweek with a brace from Hakan Calhanoglu as well as a Petar Sucic strike.

Hellas Verona vs Inter Milan prediction
Hellas Verona head into this one on the back of a very poor start to the season after again narrowly avoiding the drop last season. They have a limited squad, despite some busy business towards the end of the summer. Inter started slowly but have gone through the gears and are adapting to what Chivu wants, or more that Chivu is adapting his own principles to the players at his disposal and siding with the Nerazzurri would appear the way to go for this one.
