Inter Milan vs Venezia: Preview
After an electrifying 4-4 draw with Juventus last weekend, Inter quickly returned to winning on Wednesday evening, taking full advantage when Empoli went down to 10 men before halftime. Davide Frattesi, who’s often shone for Italy despite limited club minutes, made the most of a rare start at Stadio Castellani, scoring twice. Lautaro Martinez then capped off the 3-0 win with a late goal.
This marked Inter’s 11th away victory of 2024—the highest in Serie A—extending their unbeaten run to seven games since losing the Derby della Madonnina to AC Milan, which also includes a 1-0 Champions League triumph over Young Boys.
Unlike Inter’s straightforward win, Venezia had to fight back dramatically to claim three points against Udinese on Wednesday at Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo. Trailing 2-0 to their regional rivals, Venezia’s captain and leading scorer, Joel Pohjanpalo, sparked the comeback with a penalty. A red card for Udinese shortly after shifted the game’s momentum.
Inter Milan vs Venezia: Team News
Inter Milan
Simone Inzaghi expects to welcome back two regulars, Hakan Calhanoglu and Francesco Acerbi, for this weekend’s match. Though with Wednesday’s game against Arsenal on the horizon, it remains uncertain if either will start. Kristjan Asllani should be available despite a recent knee issue, but Brazilian wing-back Carlos Augusto may not return until after the next international break. Given the busy schedule, Inter could make a few adjustments, with backup Forwards Mehdi Taremi and Marko Arnautovic on standby to relieve Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram if needed.
Venezia
For Venezia, Marin Sverko’s return midweek means Left-Winger Bjarki Bjarkason is now their only sidelined player. Leading scorer Joel Pohjanpalo will take charge up front for the Lagunari, with USA international Gianluca Busio supporting in attack. Former Inter player Gaetano Oristanio will compete with John Yeboah for a spot alongside them.
Possible Starting XI
Inter Milan’s possible starting lineup: Sommer; Pavard, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Frattesi, Zielinski, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Taremi. Venezia’s possible starting lineup: Stankovic; Idzes, Svoboda, Haps; Zampano, Duncan, Nicolussi Caviglia, Ellertsson; Busio, Oristanio; Pohjanpalo
Inter Milan vs Venezia: Prediction
The match will be a great watch as both teams are stacked with high-quality players. Those three points are critical; both teams will do their best to secure them. Inter Milan has an edge to win the fixture by a decent margin. However, as they have been in the past few matches, Venezia won’t stay quiet and will be lethal enough on counter-attacks.
