Form and Line-up
Inter Milan go into this match in excellent spirits, but far from in peak physical condition. Earlier this week the hosts battled Lazio (2:0) in the Coppa Italia final and expended a considerable amount of energy. It is also worth noting that for 270 minutes now the side have kept their goal intact, which speaks of maximum concentration even in matches that do not mean anything.

Form and Line-up
Hellas Verona have really decided to make a noise before going down. First the visitors took points off Juventus (1:1), then they almost upset Como (0:1). The ultra-attacking team coached by Fabregas created only 0.85 xG, and they were denied a draw only by a marginal offside. The only question is what stopped the visitors from defending like this right from the start of the season?
