Inter Palermo Odds: Ranieri not looking to panic at San Siro
Bet365 bookmaker (Live Stream Available) Latest Betting Odds: Inter Milan 4/9, draw 10/3, Palermo 7/1
Ahead of his team taking on Palermo this evening, Inter Milan boss Claudio Ranieri has spoken about how difficult he expects the match to be after a shock loss to Lecce last week with Bet365 announcing a HD live stream on the game.
This is the correct attitude for the former Chelsea manager to take too. Palermo have shown on several occasions this year that they are a more than capable side and Inter will need to be focused if they are to come away with victory.
It is a victory Ranieri’s men really need too. They are right in the middle of a battle for one of the three Champions League places available and this is one that will more than likely go down to the last week or two of the season.
Therefore, any Serie A points picked up now are worth their weight in gold. Inter are keen to discover the winning feeling again too after two defeats in their last two games, most recently at relegation threatened Lecce.

Prior to this there was a 2-0 defeat to Napoli in the Coppa Italia and this ended an eight game winning streak across all competitions.
Well, ahead of tonight’s game with Palermo, Ranieri has said that he wants his team to show ‘courage and quality’ to get the three points. Then, they will see this as the start another potential winning streak.
As mentioned though, Palermo will not simply turn up to the San Siro and accept defeat. They will attempt to compete with Inter from the very first whistle, buoyed from victories in their last two games, during which they have found the back of the net eight times.
There has been no away victory since July for Palermo though and this is no coincidence. They clearly struggle to create their best form on the road, although now is as good a time as any to end this run.
Looking at the team news for tonight’s contest, Inter have included Thiago Motta despite constant speculation about his future, while Palermo – who have struggled for goals away from home – are without injured striker Abel Hernandez.
Overall, this is a game Inter are expected to win, but they were also expected to defeat Lecce last time out so anything can happen.
