Football Bet of the Day: Inter won't find Pescara too pesky

Inter v Pescara
Saturday 19:45 (Live on BT Sport 1)

Osasuna and Malaga fell a goal short of expectations in Spain last night.

We're crossing the Med and dipping into Italy for tonight's Serie A game. In-form Internazionale are hosting bottom-of-the-table Pescara and we expect it'll be a one-sided affair.

Since Stefano Pioli took charge of Inter in November, the Nerazzurri have won 7/9 league games. The matches they've failed to win were early on - and against strong sides (Napoli and AC Milan). Now on a winning streak of six, we fancy them to put Pescara to bed early this evening.

Massimo Oddo's visitors are W0-D2-L8 on the road this season (though an early defeat has subsequently been reversed because Sassuolo fielded an ineligible player). They've conceded at least twice in 7/8 defeats. Visiting Serie A's best teams (the current top four), they've been hit for three every time.

With Pioli winning all four of his home league games by at least a couple of goals, we're right behind Inter on the Asian Handicap.
