Sassuolo managed to save the category in the last games, although it had aspirations for something more. So last year should be a lesson for the future. The 'helm' of the team was taken over by 39-year-old Roberto De Zerbi, former coach of Benevento. He strengthened several transfers with the acquisitions of Khouma Babacar, Jens Odgaard, Jérémie Boga, Di Francesco, while he acquired on loan Loccateli from Milan and Kevin-Prince Boateng as a free agent. Among the important names that left are Diego Falcinelli, Francesco Acerbi and Mateo Politano. In the first official match of the season, they crushed Ternana 5-1 for the 3rd round of the Cup. The primary goal is to stay and after that arises, however I expect that he will succeed for something more this year.
On the other hand, Inter finished in fourth place in last year's championship. Although it started strong enough, the continuation was not proportional, especially when you have to face teams such as Juventus, Napoli, Roma, Lazio, Fiorentina and Milan. Luciano Spalletti remained on the bench. In the transfer market, he acquired 21-year-old Lautaro Martinez from Racing Club, a quality, talented and evolving football player. Also, Radja Nainggolan from Roma, Sime Vrsaljko, as well as Di Marko and Mateo Politano. Which in combination with last year's roster tie the team even more. In the International Champions Cup, they defeated Lyon and Atletico Madrid 1-0 and lost on penalties to Chelsea.
Getting started with several ambitions for the two teams, each with different goals. Both are expected to appear strong, strengthened enough. I wait for an open game with several finals. So I will bet on the corners of the match.
