Inter vs Fiorentina Prediction 10 February 2025

🔊 Will Inter be able to take revenge on Fiorentina? Just a few days ago, in a rescheduled match of the 14th round of Serie A, the teams met at the Artemio Franchi stadium, where the "Nerazzurri" were torn apart in all aspects (0-3). However, Simone Inzaghi's team clearly does not plan to step on the same rake twice. We recommend checking out our prediction before placing a bet on the game that will take place at the Giuseppe Meazza.

📊 Head-to-head

Although Fiorentina destroyed their opponent in the previous match (3-0), their results in head-to-head encounters with Inter remain modest. Over a stretch of 38 matches, Inter achieved a positive result in 23 cases, while the "Viola" disappointed their opponent only 8 times. And only two of these victories have come after 2018.

🔵 Inter

Is it really possible for Inter to go through an entire season without slumps? The team that was destroying everyone in its path has not performed well in recent matches. Last weekend, the "Nerazzurri" struggled to draw with Milan (1-1), and on February 6th, they were completely outclassed by Fiorentina in a rescheduled match (0-3). Despite having total control of the game (72% vs. 28% possession), Simone Inzaghi's team hardly threatened the "Viola's" goal - 2 shots on goal, xG 0.44, and 1 created goal-scoring opportunity. These two unsuccessful matches made bookmakers revise their predictions: for the first time this season, they consider Napoli the main contender for the title. As for the upcoming encounter, the coaching staff will not be able to count on Denzel Dumfries (suspension due to yellow cards), but this is a significant loss considering his stats (6+1).

🟣 Fiorentina

It's nice to see Fiorentina regaining their former form. After the death of Raffaele Palladino's mother, the team went through a terrible stretch of 7 matches without a win (3 draws and 4 losses). However, these results are long forgotten like a bad dream. The "Viola" managed to collect maximum points in the last 3 rounds, defeating quite serious opponents. Besides the victory over Inter (3-0), Fiorentina also triumphed over Genoa (2-1), which under Patrick Vieira is showing very quality football, and Lazio, their direct competitor in the fight for a top-four finish (2-1). Regarding the upcoming encounter, 6 players will miss the game, including Yacine Adli (3+4, ankle injury) and Pietro Comuzzo (suspension due to yellow cards).

⚽️ Goal Prediction

In the previous head-to-head encounter, Inter couldn't find the key to their opponent's goal in 90 minutes (3-0). In fact, this is a very rare occurrence. This season, only Manchester City (0-0) and Bayer (1-0) managed to keep a clean sheet against the "Nerazzurri". But Fiorentina chose the most correct game plan - they gave the ball to Inter, concentrated all their forces on defense, and caught them on fast counterattacks. It is likely that in the upcoming match, the guests will play with such tactics again, so it would be logical to go with the option of Inter's total under 2.5 goals.

🚩 Corner Prediction

In the upcoming encounter, Inter should not face serious difficulties with attempts to deliver the ball to the corner flag. In general, the "Nerazzurri" are one of the best teams in Serie A in this statistical category. The team averages 6.1 corners per game - similar figures to Lazio. Considering that in the previous head-to-head meeting, Simone Inzaghi's team earned as many as 8 set pieces at Fiorentina's goal, our betting option will be Inter's total corners over 5.5.

📝 Editorial Prediction

According to bookmakers, Inter is the clear favorite in the upcoming encounter. However, after the match that took place on February 6th (0-3), it's unlikely anyone will bet on a clean victory for the "Nerazzurri". Simone Inzaghi's team displayed very weak football, hardly creating dangerous moments at the opponent's goal. And it should be noted that hints of a slump in form were evident even at the beginning of January. Inter managed to lose the Italian Super Cup, losing in the final to Milan (2-3) after leading 2-0, and a few days later failed to handle Bologna at home in the league (2-2). The "Viola", on the other hand, have regained confidence in their abilities, demonstrating bright performances in their last three matches. Therefore, our key betting option will be Fiorentina's win with a handicap (+1.5). As for the final result, we believe the match will end with a score of 1-1.
