(Football news) Having won the Coppa Italia the previous season, Simone Inzaghi’s team is in Riyadh to play the capital club, who finished second in the 2022–23 Serie A season. 

When Inter plays Lazio for a position in the Super Cup final against Napoli or Fiorentina in Saudi Arabia, Inzaghi shouldn’t feel inclined to give his previous team an advantage.

Last year’s winners — the Nerazzurri beat AC Milan 3-0 in the final — are back in the revamped competition featuring four teams for the first time, keen to make the most of their manager’s cup-winning expertise.

Inter head into Friday’s game fresh from a rampant 5-1 thrashing of Monza in Serie A last weekend, inflicting the Biancorossi’s heaviest home defeat in the competition since gaining promotion in 22-23.

Lautaro Martinez is the undoubted man in form, with El Toro hitting a brace to take his tally for the season to 18 league goals, and a further two in the Champions League have the Argentina international on 20 in all competitions.

Inzaghi hopes to count on his star striker against Lazio, with Inter keen to make this year’s decider and claim a third win on the trot in all competitions.
