Inter vs Genoa Prediction & Betting Tips (28 February)

Inter’s meeting with Genoa at San Siro comes at a moment when Simone Inzaghi’s side look relentless in both Serie A and Europe. In the last two months, the Nerazzurri have seen their domestic schedule confirmed with this clash set for late February under the lights at the Meazza, while also juggling a Coppa Italia semi-final against Como and a demanding Champions League knockout play-off tie with Bodø/Glimt. On the pitch, Inter have swept aside Sassuolo away, beaten Juventus in a thriller, and handled tricky league and cup assignments with authority, reinforcing their status as title favourites and one of the most balanced squads in Italy.

Recent results underline just how complete Inter’s performances have been. In Serie A, they have dismantled Sassuolo away, edged Juventus in a high-intensity contest at San Siro, and controlled proceedings in a professional win at Cremonese. In the cups and Europe, they have eliminated Torino in the Coppa Italia and earned a strong away victory at Dortmund before a rare setback in the first leg against Bodø/Glimt. Across these fixtures, Inter have combined Lautaro Martínez’s cutting edge with a midfield that dictates tempo and a defence that concedes very few clear chances, especially at home.

Genoa arrive in Milan with a very different recent storyline, one built on resilience but also inconsistency. Over the past couple of months they have shared goalless draws with Parma and Cremonese, battled through narrow defeats against Lazio and Napoli, and claimed a dramatic home win over Bologna followed by a convincing victory against Cagliari. That run shows a team capable of troubling opponents in transition yet still vulnerable when forced to defend deep for long spells. Their away form, in particular, has been patchy, and sustaining concentration for ninety minutes at San Siro against a high-pressing, possession-dominant Inter side will be their biggest challenge.

Putting all this together, the matchup feels tilted toward another commanding Inter display in front of their own fans, where their pressing, set-piece threat, and squad depth usually tell over ninety minutes. Genoa’s occasional defensive lapses and difficulty escaping pressure away from home could be ruthlessly exposed by Inter’s attacking rotations and full-back overlaps. With Inter’s recent scoring bursts and defensive solidity, a clear-margin home win looks the most logical outcome. Our correct-score prediction is a confident 3:0 to Inter, and that same scoreline is echoed in these related previews: 3-0, 3-0, 3-0, and 3-0<
