Analysis:

Inter Milan comes into this match after winning their match against A.C Milan with only ten players on the field. Worse was to come when Jose Mourinho and director Ernesto Paolillo will now face disciplinary action for suggesting there is a conspiracy against Inter, Marco Materazzi faced criticism for donning a Silvio Berlusconi mask during the post match celebrations, and will miss both Wesley Sneijder and Lucio following their controversial red cards.

But Inter managed to hang on to the 2-0 win with ten players for more than an hour. The win will quickly be rendered worthless if they fail to beat Parma today though. That is because Milan will unlikely drop points at home against Livorno. As it is now Milan are nine points behind their fierce rivals at present, although with a game in hand.

Parma goes into this clash in poor form. They have suffered four defeats in their last five games. This is so much different to their performance before Christmas when they managed to go as high as 4th in the standings.

Now the home side have slipped down to 12th, and if they do not do something it will not be a battle for European places, but to avoid relegation as what happened at the closing of last season.

As for the team news, in the absence of Sneijder and Lucio, Inter have been boosted with the return of Samuel Eto’o from the African Nations Cup, although his selection is far from certain given the devastating display strike pair Diego Milito and Goran Pandev produced on Sunday.

Rene Khrin and Cristian Chivu are injured, as are Parma’s Alberto Paloschi and Damiano Zenoni.

This will be the first visit Inter Milan will be oaying to Parma's Tardini stadium when Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck a double to win them the title and relegating Parma in the process which was on the last day of the 2007-08 season.

Take Inter Milan to win here.

Cheers and good luck,
