Sports Innovation previews the Coppa Italia match between Inter and AS Roma and offers team stats, betting tips and the latest odds.

Jose Mourinho returns to San Siro to lead his Roma side against former club Inter Milan in a Coppa Italia quarter-final match on Tuesday.

The Portuguese has had a mixed return to Serie A, 11 years after leading Inter to a historic treble. Roma are seventh in the league table, six points outside the top-four. A win on Tuesday, though, would move the Giallorossi a step closer to ending their 13-year trophy drought.

Inter, on the other hand, aim to return to winning ways after a 2-1 defeat to AC Milan at the weekend.
