Today’s match against Fiorentina could be crucial for Inter, as coach Antonio Conte has a history of starting a run of strong form after facing the Florence based club, according to a report in today’s paper edition of the Milano based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.
The report details how the 50-year-old Italian coach, in his debut season with Juventus, went into the match against Fiorentina after suffering four draws in a row. The Bianconeri would go on to win against the Viola 5-0 that day, before going on a run of nine wins out of a possible ten, with the first seven coming consecutively.
Two years later, the report continues, Conte’s Bianconeri came back from 2-0 down to win the game 4-2 and then went on to win 12 games in a row to win the title that season. These examples may suggest that Conte’s Inter could experience a similar run of form if they can beat the Florence based club tonight.
