Inter’s Coppa Italia title defense starts tomorrow against Parma at the San Siro. Inter coming off of a lackluster performance against Monza in the Serie A, will look to bounce back to winning ways on Tuesday.
Inzaghi’s men took care of business against Napoli when Serie A resumed after winter break but inconsistency has been the theme for Inter this season. Monza nearly took the game from Inter at the very end but Inter held on to a draw.
Parma will not be an easy game and if there’s any desire in Inter to make a deep run in the cup, this will be a good test for them.
Despite making the drop to Serie B, Parma is still one of those tricky teams that can show up big on game day.
