Inter vs Salernitana Prediction & Betting Tips (16 February)

Leader of Serie A with 1 game less and 7 points ahead of its closest pursuer, Inter is in a very favorable position to win a new Scudetto this season. The Lombard team has only conceded one setback since the start of the championship at the end of September. Uncompromising in 2024, the Nerazzurri have won their last 5 league matches. They also continue with convincing successes against Juventus 1-0 and at Roma last weekend 2-4. Inter also won the Italian Super Cup in January. Tuesday, Simone Inzaghi's men host Atletico Madrid in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League.

Not at the level in this 2023/2024 exercise, Salernitana occupies the last place in Serie A with only 13 points taken in 24 matches. The red lantern should have a lot of difficulty avoiding the descent with 1 more match and 7 points behind the first non-relegation team. Without much solution, Antonio Candreva's partners have not won any of their last 6 championship matches, 1 draw and 5 defeats. After taking a point at Torino 0-0, they had a bad operation last weekend. Despite the support of its fans, Salernitana lost against poorly ranked Empoli 1-3.

For Inter, substitutes Cuadrado and Frattesi and little-used midfielder Sensi are still unavailable this Friday. This is also the case for the important defender Acerbi who scored against Roma before getting injured. Silent during the last two days, captain Lautaro Martinez still remains the undisputed top scorer in Serie A with 19 goals. He could be associated with replacement Arnautovic while his usual sidekick Marcus Thuram (9 goals and 7 assists in SA) should take his place on the bench.

Inter has the best attack and the best defense in the championship. During this transfer window, winger Buchanan (Club Bruges) arrived in Lombardy while replacements Agoumé (Sevilla FC) and Salcedo (Lecco) were loaned.
