Preview: Chievo vs. Inter Milan

Sports Mole previews the match between Chievo and Inter Milan in Serie A.

Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini will be eager to turn around the club's poor run of form when they travel to Chievo on Monday night.

Mancini, who has returned for his second spell at the San Siro, has seen his side win just once in six games in all competitions and the club now languishes in 12th position in the table.

Inter sit just eight points off the top four but Mancini could be looking in the opposite direction with just six points separating them from the relegation zone.

After resting a host of players for the trip to Qarabag on Thursday, Mancini is likely to recall the majority of players who featured in the 2-1 defeat to Udinese.

Chievo began the season in abysmal fashion, picking up just four points from nine league games, but a five-game unbeaten streak has moved the club out of the bottom three.

They remain with just one home victory all season but their 2-0 triumph at Cagliari last week will provide them with belief ahead of the visit of Inter.

Boss Rolando Maran is unlikely to make any changes to a side that have conceded just two goals in five matches.

Chievo:

Recent form: LDWDDW

Possible starting lineup: Bizzarri, Cesar, Gamberini, Frey, Zukanovic, Birsa, Izco, Hetemaj, Radovanovic, Paloschi, Meggiorini

Inter Milan:

Form in Serie A: WLDDLL
Form in all competitions: DDWLLD

Possible starting lineup: Handanovic, Nagatomo, Ranocchia, Dodo, Juan, Kuzmanovic, Medel, Guarin, Kovacic, Palacio, Icardi

Sports Mole says: 1-1
