Team Form and Analysis for Inter Milan
Inter Milan have demonstrated their credentials as early title challengers, occupying a top-four position despite a recent 3-1 setback against Napoli. The Nerazzurri have a strong attacking record, scoring 19 goals in eight league matches—one of the best in the division—and securing a commendable five wins. Their domestic form has been strong at the San Siro. In Europe, Inter have been clinical, securing three successive victories in the UEFA Champions League League Phase, which has built significant confidence. However, defensive consistency has been an occasional issue, with the team failing to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last ten Italian top-flight home games.
The player Inter will rely on most is Lautaro Martínez. The Argentine forward remains the team’s key attacking threat and is central to their system. His clinical finishing, coupled with his high work rate, makes him a constant menace. He benefits heavily from the team’s creativity, which has generated a league-high number of big chances.
Team Form and Analysis for Fiorentina
Fiorentina has faced a more challenging start to the 2025/2026 season, struggling to find the consistency needed to climb the table. La Viola currently sits in the relegation places (18th) and is one of the few teams yet to register a league victory, recording four draws and four losses. This run of eight winless matches domestically has placed considerable pressure on the shoulders of their new coach, Stefano Pioli. This match represents a major opportunity for the team to halt their difficult period. Despite their league woes, the squad has performed exceptionally well in the UEFA Conference League, leading their group with a perfect record of two wins and zero goals conceded.
The player Fiorentina will rely on most is Moise Kean. The experienced forward is Fiorentina’s most potent threat, scoring four league goals for the team. His physicality and nose for goal are essential weapons required to break down a robust Inter defense, though he must improve his conversion rate.
Head-to-Head Record between the teams
Inter Milan have historically held a psychological and statistical advantage in recent Serie A fixtures against Fiorentina. The Nerazzurri have won five of the last seven meetings across all competitions.

Prediction
Keywords: Inter Milan vs Fiorentina prediction, Serie A score prediction, betting tips
Considering the current league positions and the significant disparity in recent domestic form, Inter Milan are rightly seen as the strong favorites to secure the victory at home. Fiorentina’s focus on the Conference League and their ongoing struggles to earn a Serie A win (0-4-4 record) make a positive result at the San Siro a massive ask. While Inter’s defense has been imperfect at home, their attacking quality, led by Martínez, and overall organization under the current coaching setup should ultimately prove too much to handle across the 90 minutes. We anticipate a competitive game with goals, but Inter’s firepower will decide the result.
Score Prediction: Inter Milan 3 – 1 Fiorentina
