Inter Milan will be facing Genoa on Saturday, August 21, 2021 at the prestigious Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) stadium in Milano for the first Serie A fixture of the season for both teams. Inter have been going through ups and downs throughout this transfer window after they lifted the Serie A trophy last season. Problems began when meetings took place between Antonio Conte and Inter’s administration to plan the future of the team.
The result was Conte’s decision to leave the club after the administration made it clear that they won’t be able to keep the team stars at the club for the upcoming season given their financial issues. This led to selling Hakimi to PSG and later on Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea. Inter then bought the services of Edin Džeko and Denzel Dumfries in an attempt to replace the two players who helped Inter Milan achieve their success in Serie A and dominate the league despite Juventus, Atalanta and Milan’s good form last season.
Moreover, Inter Milan hired the ex Lazio head coach Simone Inzaghi to replace Antonio Conte and try to maintain the high level of Conte’s team performances, even though this doesn’t seem to be an easy mission. Yet, Inzaghi has got what it takes to form a solid squad and use his experience to employ his players in the best possible way in Serie A, UEFA Champions League and in the Italian Cup as well.
On the other hand, Genoa will try to create a surprise on Saturday and start their first Serie A match with an away win which would give the team a huge boost ahead of their difficult upcoming fixtures. Davide Ballardini will rely on a mixture of talented and experienced players such as Valon Behrami, Domenico Criscito, Goran Pandev, Salvatore Sirigu, Milan Badelj, Ivan Radovanović and other good players in order to beat a tough team like the Nerazzurri.
