Inter Milan vs Verona Prediction
The hosts have been a force to be reckoned with at home this season and have dropped points just twice in 15 games. They have drawn their last two games, both of which were away fixtures, so they can return to winning ways here.
Verona's poor form is also one of the reasons why Inter can take a huge step towards the Scudetto. We predict another home win for Inter in this fixture.
Prediction: Inter Milan 1-0 Verona
