Inter Milan are set to play Venezia at San Siro on Saturday in their next Serie A fixture.
Inter Milan come into this game on the back of a 3-2 win over Aurelio Andreazzoli's Empoli in the Round of 16 of the Coppa Italia. Goals from Chilean attacker Alexis Sanchez, centre-back Andrea Ranocchia and midfielder Stefano Sensi secured the win for Simone Inzaghi's Inter Milan.
A goal from Albania international Nedim Bajrami and an own goal from Romanian goalkeeper Ionut Radu proved to be a mere consolation for Empoli.
Venezia, on the other hand, drew 1-1 against Empoli in their most recent game. A first-half goal from Polish midfielder Szymon Zurkowski for Empoli was cancelled out by a second-half goal from Nigerian striker David Okereke for Venezia.
