Inter Milan v Salernitana

Inter Milan vs Salernitana Preview

Inter Milan registered a fifth league win on the trot in the Italian top flight following a 4-2 win away from home at Roma on the weekend to maintain their grip on top spot of the Serie A table, while Salernitana remain bottom of the Serie A table after slipping to a 3-1 loss at home to Empoli which became a fifth defeat in six matches for the visitors.

Inter Milan currently possess a useful looking seven-point cushion over second placed Juventus heading into Friday night's clash against lowly Salernitana and the hosts are showing very little signs of slowing down as they have recorded recent wins against Verona, Monza, Fiorentina, Juventus and Roma respectively which is an impressive haul of wins indeed.

The bigger picture shows Inter Milan have suffered just the single defeat throughout the whole of this season's Serie A campaign which came in the form of a rare lapse in a 2-1 loss at home to Sassuolo in the early stages of the season but the hosts have since staged an impressive sequence of results in subsequent months.

Simone Inzaghi's side are now unbeaten in their last 17 matches overall in Serie A which has not only taken the home side to the top of the Italian top flight table but also includes 14 wins within this period as well.

Salernitana can only dream of being in their hosts' position as the visitors sit rock-bottom of the Serie A table and six points adrift of safety after being handed a heavy 3-1 loss at home to Empoli which became a fifth loss in six games for the away side which doesn't bode well for this upcoming and daunting trip to face the league leaders here on Friday night.

Previous losses to Juventus, Napoli, Genoa, Roma and Empoli suggest this encounter with Inter Milan is also likely to go the way of their opponents, while the bigger picture shows Salernitana have managed to capture just the two victories throughout the whole of this season to date.

Rare glimpses of success have come in the shape of wins against Lazio and Verona but otherwise it's been pretty much one-way traffic against Salernitana who have now slumped to 15 defeats within their total of 24 games played so far this term.

Results away from home also underline how tough this campaign has been for Salernitana as they have collected just one win on their travels while also slipping to seven defeats within their 11 outings on the road, so the visitors look set to have their work cut out here on Friday night.
