Inter Vs Chievo match preview or guess who's back

So can Inter end a run of four defeats? The manager under most pressure in Italy this week has to be Alberto Zaccheroni, who can prehaps see the vultures that have started to fly over his time in charge of the Nerazzurri. Remember ex-coach Hector Cuper was sacked for a less disastrous run, well if the reports are true he could be on his way back.

Zaccheroni faces a nightmare when it comes to selection, C. Zanetti, Helveg, Farinos and Cordoba are all suspended for the match and the injured list contains Coco, Almeyda, Gamarra, Emre, Materazzi and Stankovic.

He does have on offer the services of Alvaro Recoba, who is returning from a 1 match ban, but is not expected to return to the team with Kily Gonzalez expected to get the shout.

If Inter are going to end this run of results now would seam a good time, Chievo are not the high flyers of the last couple of seasons and are struggling themselves, but prehaps they have enough history in the San Siro to get the donkeys flying once again.

Although they are no longer seen as the giant killers they once were, Chievo greatest asset remains their away form, with 17 of their 30 points, picked up away from home.


The match is shown live on Eurosport 2.00pm on Sunday.
