Inter Milan Set For Pivotal Season Juncture With 3 High-Profile Fixtures Waiting In The Wings | OneFootball

Serie A title holders Inter Milan gear up for a critical juncture, with three mouth-watering league fixtures awaiting the Italian champions.

According to FCInterNews, several injury boosts during October’s international break have come at the most opportune moment for the Nerazzurri.

The period between the October and November breaks has often proved crucial for the Scudetto race in recent years.

Last season, Inter slipped to a 2-2 home draw against Bologna but won all remaining top-flight outings in this timeframe.

Those victories included high-profile results against Atalanta and Roma, profiling the Nerazzurri as the leading title candidates.

Head coach Simone Inzaghi will hope his team can replicate those successes this term.

With Serie A returning to action this weekend, Inter take a daunting-looking trip to the Stadio Olimpico to meet Roma.

But that’s only the beginning of a potentially season-defining fixture schedule between the second and third international break.

Only three days after taking on Ivan Juric’s side, Inter will resume their UEFA Champions League campaign against Young Boys.

That routine-looking task on paper serves as the final warm-up ahead of the heavily anticipated Derby d’Italia.

Given Juventus’ impressive Serie A start under Thiago Motta, a heavyweight clash at Giuseppe Meazza has all the makings of an early title six-pointer.

After facing their fiercest rivals on home turf, Inter will encounter minnows Empoli and newly promoted Venezia.

Indeed, Inzaghi’s side should comfortably get six points from those matches, barring some unexpected developments.

But Inter will have no time to rest, with a European blockbuster against Arsenal coming up next.

The Gunners’ visit to Italy should prepare the Nerazzurri for Napoli boss Antonio Conte’s return to Meazza.

Indeed, the ex-Inter boss will return as a foe in the final Serie A fixture ahead of November’s break.
