Inter Milan vs Spezia Prediction
Inter Milan's financial restrictions have not stopped them from being active during the summer transfer window. After missing out on the Serie A title last season, the club have signed players like Kristjan Asllani, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Andre Onana, and probably most importantly, Romelu Lukaku.
With Juventus still finding their feet after some turbulent seasons and with Napoli undergoing a squad turnover, it could once again be the Milan clubs contending for the league title.
Spezia, on the other hand, finished 16th last season and have signed players like Mattia Caldara and Daniel Maldini this summer. They have sold Giulio Maggiore to Salernitana amid controversial circumstances, and will hope to build on their positive Serie A start.
Inter Milan will be the favorites to win.
Prediction: Inter Milan 2-0 Spezia
