Inter Milan commences its Serie A title defence this weekend with an away game at Genoa, aiming for a strong start similar to last season's five consecutive victories. This campaign, Inter seeks to become the first team since Juventus in 2020 to retain the Scudetto.

The Italian top flight has seen varied champions over recent years, with AC Milan, Inter, and Napoli all winning the title, making the league less predictable. While Inter maintains continuity with Simone Inzaghi, rivals like AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli have new managers at the helm.

Inter has focused on key free transfers, acquiring Polish midfielder Piotr Zielinski and Iranian forward Mehdi Taremi. Zielinski is injured but Taremi is expected to feature on the bench this Saturday. Genoa, newly promoted last season, will aim to avoid relegation despite challenges with squad availability and transfers. Meanwhile, AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli all face their own unique challenges and expectations in the upcoming matches.
