Current form — Roma v. Inter

The Giallorossi paddling along

It has been up and down for Roma going into this match as league results offer little sense of progress. Jose Mourinho’s side are looking to bounce back from a recent setback and get back to winning ways. In their last three matches, they first took out Zorya by 4-0, before downing Torino by 1-0. The winning streak came to an end against Bologna, who ran out 1-0 winners.

The Nerazzurri hope to extend winning run

Inter seem untouchable right now. Simone Inzaghi’s side have been in awesome shape going into this next encounter, as they won their last 3 matches on the bounce. Shakhtar Donetsk got left behind in a 2-0 win, before Venezia got hammered in a 0-2 victory. Spezia was the most recent victim in a 2-0 win for Inter.

Despite home advantage, the bookies don’t favor Roma for the win. The Giallorossi are priced at 3.90 with Betfair to take all three points, while Mr. Green has Inter pegged down for victory at tempting odds of 2.20.

Roma v. Inter — fixture history

The last match between these teams was a Serie A match back on 12 May 2021 and saw Inter claim a 3-1 victory.

Roma have the following 2-6-2 meeting statistics with the Nerazzurri. The past 10 matches between these clubs have largely been entertaining matches. With more than two goals coming out 7 times in these encounters, it is only natural to look for goals this coming Saturday.

Current table in the Serie A

Looking at the current Serie A standings, Roma and Inter are currently 9 points and 2 places apart. The latter will no doubt attempt to grab all three points on Saturday to move further up the league table. Despite being the outsider in this clash, Roma will try to make this a miserable day for their opponents. The result of this game could have a big impact on both teams in their upcoming matches. There is every reason to zoom in on the clash between Roma and Inter.

Man of the Moment

Tammy Abraham has been hitting the target on a regular basis in recent matches. Roma will no doubt look to him for more goals in their next match against Inter. The visitors are surely hoping Hakan Calhanoglu or Lautaro Martinez adds another to their respective tallies, having both managed 3 goals in recent games.
