A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Match Preview :
Inter will aim to get their second win in a row when they host A.S Roma in this week's top clash. For Roma, they are still aiming for their first win under new coach Zdenek Zeman.
Inter beat newly promoted side Pescara on opening day with latest signing Antonio Cassano and star playmaker Wesley Sneijder showing what they are capable of. Meanwhile, Diego Milito also proved his worth scoring one of the goals and setting up the other two goals. For Coach Andrea Stramaccioni the meeting with Roma will be significant as he was part of Roma's youth coaching setup.
The hosts Inter will miss the services of Samir Handanovic, Gaby Mudingayi, Cristian Chivu and Ricky Alvarez but former Genoa striker Rodrigo Palacio is expected to start. While Cassano will miss facing his old team here. However, after playing with 10 men for the majority of their nervy 2-2 Europa League draw with Vaslui on Thursday, fatigue could be a problem for the hosts.
Roma had to come from behind in their opening match with wonderful goals to draw 2-2 with Catania. Pablo Osvaldo and Nicolas Lopez’s strikes were equally impressive as new Coach Zeman marked his return to the club opting for an attacking approach. Roma's defence is inexperience and will have to improve to face Inter's attack in this match.
Holding midfielder Michael Bradley was disappointing against Catania and will sit out at San Siro due to injury. Brazilian Marquinho should fill in, but compatriot Dodo isn't match fit yet.
Last season these sides played to a goalless draw.
