Match Preview
In our SPAL vs Inter preview this week, we dissect a fascinating looking battle between the Serie A club placed third from bottom and the club sitting third from the top. Ordinarily, a fixture like this would be a certain away victory, but Internazionale’s recent dip in form has clouded the issue a little and may have increased the chances of a shock result this weekend.

The home side have won just once of their last eleven matches over two competitions, a run that’s worth remembering in our SPAL vs Inter betting tips further down the page. Having been promoted from Serie B last summer, SPAL were included amongst the favourites to go straight back down this year. The Spallini are fighting tooth and nail to avoid the drop however and a win this weekend at the Stadio Paolo Mazza could see them climb out of the relegation zone.
Inter’s early season title challenge looks to have petered out somewhat and a winless sequence of six games has seen them slip from the second spot down to fourth. In what seems like a flash, they are now eleven points off top spot and all their good early season work looks like it has already been undone. Luciano Spalletti’s troops can cling to their terrific away record in Serie A this season for positivity – they have been beaten just once in ten matches on the road since the summer.
SPAL vs Inter Prediction and Betting Advice
Zero wins from six matches is a horrible run of games for Internazionale, though it is only fair to acknowledge that in their most recent three fixtures, they took on some really tough opponents. Nevertheless, Spalletti’s did secure credible points in three successive draws in their clashes with Lazio, Fiorentina and Roma over the past two weeks.
In many ways, the home team featured in today’s SPAL vs Inter bets are the ideal opponents for the Nerazzurri to face in their attempts to set straight their recent woes. The Spallini have won just three of their twenty-one Serie A matches in 2017/18, a record which will have the away players licking their lips in anticipation.
Spalletti’s men have already taken on and beaten the club from Ferrara this term, turning them over 2-0 at the San Siro in the second week of September. In the opposite dugout, Leonardo Semplici has only seen his team win twice in ten on their own patch and that record is certain to be damaged further after Inter’s visit this week. We found the most valuable Serie A football odds for today at 10Bet, whose prices leave their competitors in the shade.
Argentinean hot-shot Mauro Icardi is in the spotlight for the second of today’s SPAL vs Inter predictions. The 24-year-old centre-forward has been in devastating form in 2017/18, scoring goals galore and finally repairing his fractured relationship with the Internazionale supporters. The dazzling frontman has been the clinical focal point of Spalletti’s attack since the summer and his performances have seen him linked with a money-spinning move to Real Madrid.
Icardi has scored just once in his last five appearances, though his lack of goals can be attributed to a starvation of service due to the level of opponent his team have been facing of late. Icardi did net a vital goal in the Nerazzurri’s 1-1 draw in Florence against Fiorentina a week ago, however, a strike which took his tally to eighteen Serie A goals for the season.
Icardi scored Inter’s first goal from the spot when they beat the Spallini 2-0 earlier in the season and with his team expected to be well on top again this week, the explosive striker should have enough chances to find the net once more. Backing Icardi to score using the fabulous odds at Betfred is the perfect way to cap our Italian football betting predictions this week.
