- Tournament: Serie A
- Date: Saturday, October 5
- Kick-off Time: 06:45 pm GMT
- Venue: San Siro, Milan.
Defending champions Inter Milan are set to host Torino FC for their seventh Serie A 2024-25 game. This one is expected to be closely fought, as the points table predicts a fight between the fourth and fifth-placed teams, both with 11 points.
Inter Milan have attained two wins, after their loss in the Milan Derby. A thriller against Udinese and a four goal win in the Champions League have given a boost to their morale. Now, playing at home, they will target full points here to reaffirm their target of defending the title.
Torino FC are in the exact opposite form of their opponents.

Full points here will help them keep their position firm on the table. However, a draw wouldn’t be too bad for them, playing against the champions in an away fixture.

Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan)
The Argentine star forward is slowly getting back to form. He scored a brace in the last league game, registering his first goals in Serie A 2024-25. More goals from the captain himself will also uplift the morale of his teammates.
The No. 10 will expect to net more and increase his tally, and he often is the pivot of Inter Milan’s success.
Duvan Zapata (Torino)
The Colombian attacker is captaining Torino FC, and he is leading by example. He hails 20% goal participation in the team, netting two goals in six games so far. He also has a goal in Copa Italia.
Zapata has already struck a goal against AC Milan. Now, one against arch-rivals Inter Milan will surely gain him some limelight. Also, his confidence will increase with goals against the nig teams.
Inter Milan vs Torino Prediction
Seeing form in the league, it can be predicted that a closely fought intense battle can be observed between Inter Milan and Torino. But, owing to the form in the past three games, a better team, and a huge home support, Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan are expected to edge past Torino FC. Also, the visitors have slowed a bit lately, so they might risk losing.
