Inter Milan travel away to Catania wanting to grab all 3 points after dropping 2 points against Genoa on the weekend and narrowing the game between themselves and Milan to 4 points and with Roma only a further 3 points behind.

Inter will have one eye on their Champions league game in mid-week and they are lucky to have this game played a day earlier to give them extra preparation time in London ahead of the game against Chelsea.

Inter have no major injury concerns and we can expect Etoo to come back into the starting line up to partner Milito with Pandev or Balotelli supporting them. In addition, Walter Samuel is suspended so Ivan Cordoba should slot in. Esteban Cambiasso also returns from suspension.

Catania in their last 5 home games have grabbed 11 out of 15 points, but that too against mediocre opposition. The down side for Inter is that Jose Mourinho won't be on the touch line to inspire the boys, nor available for a harsh half time team talk should the going go rough.

Ultimately, Inter have the quality in the side, and a win in this game will put pressure on Milan and Roma to grab the points as well on the weekend, which could see the gap widen further.

Inter to win this game.
