Inter Milan have a chance to extend their leadership of the Italian Serie A as they host struggling Venezia in the 23rd round of action. Inter are top of the standings with 50 points and Venezia 17th with 18 points. Inter have played some big matches recently and going into this game they have lost just once in 19 matches. They are coming from a 3-2 win over Empoli in the Coppa Italia where they needed to come from down and go all the way to extra time to win it. In the last seven league matches, Inter have managed six clean sheets; they’ve conceded just one goal in that run. Lautaro Martinez will welcome the prospect of playing at home; he has been their star player in league matches at home, scoring four in the last five matches. Inter have meanwhile kept three clean sheets in those five home league matches.

Venezia haven’t had it easy on their return to the top flight. Having last played in Serie A in 2002 before this season, they find a lot of advancement in it and have managed just four wins in 21 matches. They go to this game just two points above the relegation zone and will hope to avoid a second loss to Inter this season, having fallen 2-0 at home in the opening leg. Venezia are winless in their last five matches and the 1-1 draw with Empoli before this game only served to end a three-game losing run. They have just one win in their last 10 matches and that was against lower tier side Ternana in the Coppa Italia. Venezia have six losses in 10 matches.
