It’s time to play the 7th fixture of this years season of Serie A when Napoli come and visit Inter at Giuseppe Meazza in San Siro with kick off at 20:45 (CET). Walter Mazzarri and Rafa Benitez both have to win the game to satisfy their fans and start aiming higher up in the table and Mazzarri and Benitez will start with following teams:
INTER (3-5-2): Handanovic; Ranocchia, Vidic, Juan Jesus; Obi, Hernanes, Medel, Kovacic, Dodò; Palacio, Icardi. Coach: Mazzarri.
NAPOLI (4-2-3-1): Rafael; Britos, Albiol, Koulibaly, Zuniga; Inler, David Lopez; Callejon, Hamsik, Insigne; Higuain. Coach: Benitez.

What are your predictions for tonights game?
Good game, yet we didn’t win. To blame Vidic entirely on that first goal is actually harsh. I think we are lacking communication in defense. I mean that when in good teams someone makes a mistake, someone is there to cover him and help to “undo” that mistake, you know.
Right now it looks like that if someone makes a mistake, the others are like: “Hey, at least I covered my ass!”
When it comes to attack we lack determination and vision. In the first half when we got the ball wide in the offensive zone and it was time to cross, most of the time, we had only one player inside the box!
And when attacking from the middle we couldn’t find away trough. In the goals we scored we had many players inside the box. What do you guys think?
I think you can connect all of this to overall team motivation and confidence. Also, on moments the team doesn’t seem to know the high levels of performance and ambition required of them.
For example, I was very annoyed by Hernanes’ statement last night when he said: “We’re back!” I guess, to him, last night’s display and result is the most we can expect from Inter this year and he was very happy to tell everyone that the level has been reached. Don’t know about you guys, but I certainly expect more.
Another mistake from vidic, Icardi is very lazy this guy shoul be drop in the next game.
Icardi is a classic striker. a target man. it means he not move a lot, he stay in the box and try to make a goal
what a match
Nooooooo 🙁
Profeta!!
Why the fuck are they enjoying this equalizer like they won the UCL… wtf?!
said someone who “expects” this team to lose. LOL
What? I don’t think you understand English as good as you think you do.
We suck but Napoli is such a shitty team, ugliest football in Serie A.
Lol ofc we still loose…even when we play decently…btw all you people that were like why not play Mbay, he is too raw…thats why…anyway we are fucked as usual
What a shame…
We were actually playing pretty well…
GUAROOOOOOOO!!!!
Another mistake by Vidič…
At least he blocked that Higuain shot.
I feel like all the good things he does, Rolando could have done, without making the mistakes Vidič does. Atleast he is good for marketing I guess.
As I said earlier, here’s the pressure near the end and the goal, you could predict this to happen since minute one… classic Mazzarri game.
true
good 1st half but we need to play better in 2nd half!!!
forza inter!!!
to summarize the first half… inter lack finesse.. especially Dodo and Icardi..
We must take this match in all costs. Napoli can’t possibly present us a better opportunity.
we are finaly playing football napoli sucks
Napoli will start to pressure 2nd half…I guarantee it..then we will start to panic (we are al lollipops and cherries until pressure comes on)
lets see
Agree with you. I see Napoli winning 1:0 or 2:0, as the game draws to the end, they will start to pressure us and we won’t be able to handle it.
Yoo take it easy! Obi is a good player. Its a great oppertunity to give him a chance to play for 1st minut tonight.
how can you say hes a good player? he hasnt played a match in 3 years
OBI!?!?!? Mazzarri you do want to get fired… how is joel obi a better option on the WING than ibrahima mbaye. If Obi puts in a poor showing you might end up in the same position as eugenio corini. and i hope you do!
I feel sorry for Mbaye. It finally looked like he was gonna get a chance to play tonight when Nagatomo joined Jonathan and D’Ambrosio in the injury list. But WM chooses Obi instead. Must be though on his confidence. He will rot on the bench poor kid.
shouldve sent him out on loan again
See? Did mbaye impress you so much dude????
did obi do a better job… i dont think so. at least with mbaye were giving some vital experience to a player that might be important to us in the future unlike obi
Hmmm i do think obi did a lot better than mbaye in the match.. and both our prospect youngsters mate.
