Between now and October 6th, Inter Milan will have to navigate a packed schedule, including a top European showdown against Man City.
The Nerazzurri have started the campaign on a decent note, albeit they dropped points on the opening day in Genoa.
Simone Inzaghi’s men have been improving with every outing. After overcoming Lecce by two goals to nil, they smashed Atalanta by four unanswered strikes.
They currently sit on top of the Serie A table after three rounds, sharing the lead with Juventus, Torino and Udinese.
But after the first international break of the season, this is when the more serious part of the campaign begins, notes FcInter1908.
With the Champions League about to kickstart, Inter will be playing twice a week on most occasions.
The reigning Italian champions will resume their campaign with an away fixture against Genoa on Sunday.
The meeting against Alessandro Nesta’s struggling side could offer Inzaghi the chance to rotate his lineup. After all, two major tilts will immediately follow the trip to Brianza.
On Wednesday, Inter take on Man City on Matchday 1 of the Champions League group stage.
This meeting will take place at the Etihad Stadium, and it will be a rematch of the 2022/23 final when the Cityzens prevailed thanks to Rodri’s goal.
A Hectic Schedule Awaits Inter Milan In The Coming Weeks, Including Man City Showdown
Four days later, Inzaghi’s men will lock horns with their crosstown rivals Milan in the Derby della Madonnina.
Despite the Rossoneri’s early-season woes, this encounter remains among the most anticipated fixtures of the season.
The Nerazzurri will then meet fellow league leaders Udinese away from home on September 29th, before hosting Red Star Belgrade in the UCL three days later.
Afterwards, Inter will welcome the high-flying Torino to the San Siro on October 6th. This will be their final hurdle before the second international break of the season.
So it remains to be seen where the Nerazzurri will stand following this Tour de Force.
