Champions Inter and title rivals aim to continue winning starts
Serie A champions Inter Milan and their title rivals Napoli prepare to continue their winning starts this weekend. Inter, who finished 11 points ahead of Napoli last season and claimed the Scudetto, began their campaign with a 5-1 victory over Venezia but had to recover from two subsequent defeats. Their upcoming match against Cagliari, who started their season with a 1-0 win at Parma, will likely feature the same starting lineup that defeated Monza.
Cagliari, a team that narrowly avoided relegation last season, lost both matches against Inter in the past. Meanwhile, Napoli, now managed by Massimiliano Allegri, face Como, who started with a 1-0 win at Parma. Prior to this weekend, Napoli's matchday three saw them defeat Genoa 2-0. AS Roma, who started with a 4-0 win over Fiorentina, will travel to Lecce next, while Venezia faces AC Milan for the first time since their European campaign.
AC Milan coach Ruben Amorim aims to make a significant impact in his debut at San Siro. Meanwhile, Juventus, seeking redemption after finishing in Europa League football, host Parma on Saturday.
