Chivu’s Inter will want to prove a point
The Hellas Verona vs Internazionale Milano prediction is front and center as Hellas Verona and Inter Milan meet at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi in Serie A on Sunday, with the visitors heavy favorites to take the points and boost Cristian Chivu’s fledgling managerial reputation.
In his first few weeks in charge of the Milan giants, the Romanian ex-defender has improved the Nerazzurri’s defensive structure and added some pragmatic tweaks to their play that have brought some solid results. A 1-0 away win over AS Roma in Serie A and a 4-0 victory at Union St.-Gilloise in the Champions League demonstrated his team’s ability to do business on the road.
Our Hellas Verona vs Internazionale Milano prediction also considers that Hellas Verona set up to play a similar 3-5-2 system to Inter, but with a more measured tempo and less emphasis on control of the ball in wide areas or central midfield. Paolo Zanetti’s system is much more about compacting in a low block, using the wing-backs and a compact central three to counter attack at pace, rather than dominating possession.
Verona can score but Inter will win
That should make for an interesting tactical battle on Sunday with Inter keen to show that Chivu has already made his mark on a side that have won four and lost just one of their last five matches in all competitions. This Hellas Verona vs Internazionale Milano preview suggests that Verona will try to keep it tight and nick a result that could provide a psychological boost, but have not won any of their previous three Serie A home contests with the Internazionale, losing one and drawing two.
Inter are the dominant side in the head-to-head record with two wins in their last encounters, the most recent a 1-0 win five months ago, but they will have to work for the result against a team that have not won at home yet this term, albeit with three draws and one defeat in four matches.
When considering the Hellas Verona vs Internazionale Milano prediction, with an average of 0.75 goals per game scored and 1.00 per game conceded at the Stadio Bentegodi, Verona can get on the board at some point during the 90 minutes but both teams to score is priced up at 1.95 - which seems a bit low given Inter’s attacking depth. Back the away side to get the win at 1.39, with Verona at 8.4 and the draw at 4.35. The best Hellas Verona vs Internazionale Milano betting tips favor an away victory for Chivu’s men in this clash.
Lautaro will be licking his lips
Gift Orban is Verona’s main goal threat with an even two goals in six Serie A appearances, while Giovane Nascimento has three assists in eight from central midfield. Ange-Yoan Bonny has scored three in eight Serie A games, and he also has four assists in Inter’s last five, so is a dual threat. Lautaro Martinez has been in lethal form with four of Inter’s 13 goals in their last five coming from his boot, so he will be excited by the prospect of facing Verona’s compact defence on Sunday.
