Venezia host in-form Inter at the Penzo
Venezia face a stern test of their revival when Inter arrive at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo for a Serie A matchday 9 fixture. The hosts head into the game with one win from their last five, while Inter have taken four victories from their previous five outings, a gap in form that frames this as a tough assignment for the Venice side.
Recent head-to-head record
History offers little encouragement for Venezia. The two sides have met five times recently across competitions, and Inter have won every single occasion, including a 5-1 victory in the Coppa Italia last December and a 1-0 success in the reverse Serie A fixture in January 2025. Inter also won their two previous league meetings before that, in November 2024 and January 2022, underlining a pattern that has firmly favoured the Nerazzurri.
What is at stake
For Venezia, breaking that run would represent a significant result given their recent struggles, with four defeats in their last five matches. Inter, by contrast, will look to continue building on their recent momentum and extend their dominance over this particular opponent. The occasion at the Penzo offers a clear measuring stick for where Venezia stand against one of the division's in-form sides.
