Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has demanded his players to achieve victory over Lazio and consolidate their lead on top of the Serie A table.
The Nerazzurri have been leading the standings since the start of the season. But while the likes of AC Milan and Napoli have failed to keep pace, Juventus emerged as their most dangerous chasers.
Inter started the weekend with a two-point advantage over the Old Lady. However, Max Allegri’s men dropped two valuable points on Friday night in a 1-1 draw away to Genoa.
Therefore, the Beneamata are determined to pounce on the opportunity to open a four-point gap with their arch-rivals.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via FcInterNews, Inzaghi is eager to break away at the top of the table.
However, the 47-year-old will have to break his curse against his former club.
The Italian tactician has lost against the Biancocelesti on his two previous returns to Rome. Both matches ended 3-1 in favor of Maurizio Sarri’s side.

Since the start of the season, everyone at Inter has reiterated the desire to win the club’s 20th Scudetto and add a new golden star to the crest. This includes players, directors and even club president Steven Zhang.|
Therefore, Inter will be adamant about securing victory and beginning to build a confident lead.
