Once again the test for Inter will be away as often happened in December. If the ones against Napoli and Lazio were passed with flying colors, the one against Genoa at the end of the year decidedly less so. AND Palladino’s new challenge at Monza certainly hides some pitfalls linked to the good moment of the team and a tradition with the Brianza not always favorable to Inter and Inzaghi. Coach who has often managed to harness his more experienced colleagues (the head-to-head matches won in the first round testify to this) by often beating them, but who to the “new generation” of coaches on the bench like Dionysis, Gilardino, Thiago Motta and exactly Palladino he had to concede something, with his points average dropping.
The precedents between Inzaghi and Palladino
There have been three comparisons so far between Simone Inzaghi and Palladino. The one won on the championship debut in August, but also the two negative matches of the last championship where the draw came in Monza and the home defeat at the Meazza. In short a tradition that absolutely needs to be improved also in terms of the Scudetto, because the 3 points on Saturday will have a significant impact on the standings and will have a far-reaching value on the eve of the Super Cup finals in Arabia, also to try to put some pressure on Juve who will play on January 16th, the very day Inter will land in Riyadh.
The Nerazzurri team will also see Buchanan among their squad, the new signing to shore up the flanks, especially the right wing, and put a bit of dribbling and speed into developing the action. Inter must restart at high speed and the Canadian will certainly be able to give them a hand.
