Inter vs. Roma: Who grabs the Easter 3 points?
The clash at San Siro between Inter and Roma could prove decisive for the 2025/26 Serie A season. The home side are still leading the race, but their advantage has narrowed worryingly after a derby defeat and draws with Atalanta and Fiorentina. They need three points to take full advantage of Monday night’s direct clash between Napoli and Milan. Roma, meanwhile, are fighting for a Champions League spot and must build on their win against Lecce to keep their pursuit of fourth place on track.
