Inter Milan vs AS Roma Match Preview and Predictions
Prepare yourselves, football fans. There is pressure, pride, and points on the line in this Serie A encounter; it’s not just another one.
Today, Sunday, April 5, 2026, at 7:45 p.m. WAT, Inter Milan will host AS Roma at the storied San Siro.
This match has the potential to upset the title race or solidify Inter’s superiority.
Match Overview
With a six-point advantage, Inter Milan is comfortably leading Serie A. However, things have not been easy lately. They haven’t won any of their past four games. You read correctly: four games without a victory. Champions don’t get a good night’s sleep with that kind of form.
In contrast, Roma is in sixth place and is actively vying for a Champions League berth. They just defeated Lecce 1-0 to snap a five-game losing record under Gian Piero Gasperini. Though it may not seem like much, that victory is significant on an emotional level.
Team News & Recent Form
Although there are weaknesses, Inter Milan still appears to be powerful.
They recently fell 1-0 to rivals AC Milan and tied 1-1 with Fiorentina. It must have been painful, especially for the supporters. You understand what it’s like to lose your phone on a crowded bus in Lagos after losing a derby.
The good news? It is anticipated that Lautaro Martinez will return. The game can be altered just by his presence.
Carlos Augusto is suspended, though, and Yann Bisseck is hurt. Their balance might be impacted by that.
Roma face more serious issues.
They are struggling badly with injuries. Evan Ferguson, Paulo Dybala, and Artem Dovbyk are all out. Their attack is severely damaged by that. It would be like attending a wedding without food if you were to enter a major game without your best players. There’s something lacking.
They also have bad away form. In their last four league road games, they have failed to win. That is a major worry.
Head-to-Head (H2H) Statistics
History favors Inter heavily.
They have won 8 of the last 10 meetings against Roma. In the reverse fixture earlier this season, Inter won 1-0 at the Stadio Olimpico.
At San Siro, Inter are even stronger. They have won 10 of their last 13 home league games.
