Roma’s inconsistent form continued in the last round as they lost away to Bologna. As a result, the Giallorossi are still looking for three consecutive wins this season. Surely Jose Mourinho’s team suffered from loss of focus in certain games like the game in Bologna. Despite 15 goal attempts of which five were on target, Roma’s attack couldn’t find the back of the net.
Also, defensively the Giallorossi had to clean sheets before this game. However, a small lapse of concentration at the back allowed Bologna to snatch all three points. That was only the second time that Roma failed to score in a Serie A match this season. Mourinho knows they are up against one of the best teams at the moment. Hence, the Portuguese needs to regroup his team for this tough encounter.
Contrary to their hosts, Inter Milan are traveling to Rome on the back of a three-match winning streak. Moreover, the Nerazzurri are unbeaten in seven games with their last defeat being at the Olimpico itself at the hands of Lazio. In addition, that was Inter’s only defeat this season as Simone Inzaghi’s men look determined to stay intact with the top of the table.
Defensively, Inter are looking rock-solid as they have three consecutive clean sheets now in all competitions. Moreover, on the other side of the field, Inzaghi’s attackers have scored ten goals in their last five games. In fact, the Nerazzurri have the best attack in Serie A this season with 36 goals in 15 games. In effect, Inzaghi is very content with his team as they closed the gap with leaders Napoli to just two points.
There is a big tendency in this match that we will see a high-scoring game as was the case in the last three h2hs. Moreover, looking at the statistics we see that there is a 57% chance of over 2.5 goals to be scored in this match. Also, it is the favorite with the bookies with an odds of 1.58.
However, Inter’s strong defense may have other ideas. To point out, the Nerazzurri have four clean sheets in their last six matches in Serie A. additionally, Roma’s last three matches saw under three goals.
Consequently, and since both Mourinho and Inzaghi are relying on defensive strength in recent games we will back under 3.5 goals in this match. But given the fact that the odds are low, we will combine it with a double chance outcome at Vbet.
