Inter Milan v Genoa

Inter Milan vs Genoa Preview

Inter Milan proudly sit top of the Serie A table where the hosts possess a commanding 12-point cushion above their nearest rivals to this season's Scudetto, Juventus, and with a home fixture coming up against mid-table Genoa and eight wins on the trot under their belts, it's tough to see anything but an Inter Milan victory here on Monday night at their Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, while Genoa recorded a solid 2-0 home win against Udinese last weekend.

Inter Milan continued their impressive march towards this season's Serie A title with a resounding 4-0 thumping of Atalanta in midweek which saw the hosts capture an eighth league win on the trot and having already disposed of the likes of Verona 1-0, Juventus 1-0 and Salernitana 4-0 as well in previous wins on home soil, Simone Inzaghi's side look every bit Serie A champions-elect right now.

The hosts have been handed just the single defeat throughout this season's campaign to date which came about in a surprising and unexpected 2-1 loss at home to Sassuolo but the bigger picture shows Inter have suffered just that one defeat out of their previous 28 matches in the domestic top flight, collecting no fewer than 24 wins in the process which is an incredible record.

Genoa currently occupy 12th place in the Serie A standings and they too have produced a pretty reasonable sequence of results in the Italian top flight in recent times albeit a much more modest return than their high-flying hosts but nevertheless, Genoa have been dealt just the one defeat out of their last 11 matches overall.

That defeat came in the form of a heavy 4-1 loss at home to Atalanta but the visitors have also claimed four wins within this period by way of victories gained over Sassuolo, Salernitana, Lecce and Udinese respectively which will give Alberto Gilardino's side hope that they can match Inter Milan's intensity here.

However, league wins on the road have been tough to come by for Genoa who have managed to capture just three victories on their travels so far this season along with being handed six defeats in the process, while the bigger picture shows Genoa have won just these three games within their last 30 outings on the road overall.

Inter Milan v Genoa Verdict

Without doubt, Inter Milan will be eyeing off all three points here against Genoa on Monday night as the hosts look to take another big step towards clinching the Serie A title and having won their last eight games on the trot, five of which also seeing Inter Milan keeping clean sheets as well, Simone Inzaghi's side look to have the three points wrapped up here.
