SERIE A

Across eight league matches, Inter are 7-1-0 and second, while Venezia are 1-0-7 and 20th. The expected-goals table is less one-sided than the standings, but it still favors Inter: 24.81 xG and 9.92 xGA versus Venezia’s 14.07 xG and 18.62 xGA. Per match, that works out to 3.10 xG and 1.24 xGA for Inter, against 1.76 xG and 2.33 xGA for Venezia. The finishing gap is part of the story on both sides. Inter have scored 23 goals from 24.81 xG, so their attack is close to expectation, while Venezia have only six goals from 14.07 xG, a sharp underperformance that should improve some. On target, Inter are at 7.8 per match and Venezia at 4.4, which lines up with the projected 3-1 score and makes the higher goal total look more natural than the table suggests.
Our Venezia vs Inter Milan prediction is Venezia 1-3 Inter Milan. We like Over 3.5 goals at a playable entry threshold of +113, with Inter’s high shot output and Venezia’s goals-minus-xG gap pointing to regression toward more scoring.
