Overview
- Kickoff is 20:45 CEST at San Siro with live coverage only on DAZN and Livio Marinelli appointed as referee.
- Inter arrive off a win at Ajax but have lost two straight Serie A matches to Udinese and Juventus, a run they have not extended to three since April 2023.
- Sassuolo travel buoyed by a victory over Lazio, and the Serie A head-to-head is level at 10 wins each with two draws, though Sassuolo won the last two meetings.
- Probable XIs list Inter in a 3-5-2 with Thuram and Esposito up front and Sassuolo in a 4-3-3 featuring Berardi, Pinamonti and Laurienté.
- Bookmakers lean toward Inter leading at halftime and flag Berardi as a notable scorer option at around 5.0, noting Sassuolo’s goals have all come after the break while Inter have scored before halftime in every match.
