Spezia come into the game on the back of a 0-0 draw at Empoli in Serie A last weekend. It was a decent result against the team one place above them in the table and means Spezia are undefeated in 3 of their last 4 matches.
In addition to the draw at Empoli, Spezia have beat Cagliari and Venezia at home, results that have seen them move clear of the relegation zone. The defeat came away at the hands of Sassuolo and Spezia were level at 1-1 only to concede 3 goals in the second half.
Home form in Serie A shows Spezia have won their last 2 games at Stadio Alberto Picco and have recorded 3 wins from their last 5 on home soil.
In addition to the wins over Cagliari and Venezia, Spezia beat Sampdoria 1-0. However, there have been defeats against Fiorentina and Roma, teams currently above them in the table.
Trends show under 2.5 goals have been scored in the 3 most recent home Serie A games of Spezia.
Inter Milan make the trip to Stadio Alberto Picco having previously beat Verona 2-0 at home in Serie A. Both goals were scored in the first half of the match and that result means Inter Milan are undefeated in each of their last 8 games in all competitions, including an excellent 1-0 win at Liverpool in the Champions League.
In terms of Serie A, Inter Milan are undefeated in their last 6, with wins coming at Juventus and at home against Salernitana in addition to the victory over Verona last week.
Away form in Serie A shows Inter Milan have been undefeated in their last 10 games but they have won only 1 of their 5 most recent away trips.
There have been draws at Atalanta, Napoli, Genoa, and Torino. Trends show there have been under 2.5 goals scored in the 5 most recent away Serie A games of Inter Milan.
Team news and Spezia are expected to be without the injured duo of Mehdi Bourabia and Leo Sena.
Inter Milan have just one injury problem and central defender Stefan de Vrij will miss out due to a thigh injury.
Inter Milan have the opportunity to move above Milan to the top of the table with a win. It may only be briefly but with a game in hand, 3 points will leave them in control.
However, this will be a tight game, with few goals and it could be just a single goal that will make the difference and give Inter Milan 3 points.
