At the moment if we can't win this game, we should stop dreaming about winning Serie A.

I miss when last year we have many winstreak.

We even can't win 3 match win streak this season. Let alone 6 match win streak.

Empoli are 10th with 12 points but their stats at home are quite bad - 5 games, 4L and 1W.

They can be tougher than they look.

Thing with these sides is if you can break them, they'll be broken for the rest of the game. They are unpredictable, but if you break them they usually cannot pounce back. Otherwise it will be torture.

Don't have one.
Must win. What I'm afraid of most is our mentality crumbling after losing points in so many close matches, and with our direct rivals as well. So a good match for us to get on the right track.

Perfect match to rotate squad a bit and give a much needed rest to some players. Apart from the match against Juve early in the season, Empoli have been very poor. I would go for this:

Handanovic; Skriniar, Ranocchia, Bastoni; Barella; Dumfries, Vecino, Calhanoglu, Dimarco; Lautaro, Sanchez

I want this formation, despite it'll be almost impossible for Inzaghi to field it.
Handanovic; Skriniar, Rano, Bastoni; Brozovic; Dumbfries, Sensi, 5G, Don Marco; Hakan; Lautaro

Lautaro
don't worry, it's gonna be another thrashing. An opponent just like Simone loves. Expecting some tennis score in our favor

I think after a poor performance by Lautaro yesterday, it is better to get Sanchez play instead of him.

Would like to see Dzeko - Sanchez duo. I know both of them are old but their partnership will be interesting to watch.

Lautaro can come in the second half to replace Dzeko and Correa to replace Sanchez if he is too tired.

We have the same points as we did this time last year. We started slowly last year.

Must win and I want to see the team il Drago has there, need to rest players and its a good chance for the likes of dumfries, hakan, sanchez

Would like to see both Barella and Brozovic getting a rest, maybe even Handa but it won't happen. Inter needs a win despartely to keep pace.
