Antonio Conte, the Inter manager, discussed their hectic schedule ahead of their encounter with Verona.
"We’re playing every three days and there is a bit of tiredness, physically and mentally. It is pointless trying to hide that," Conte said.
"However, we want to finish this cycle of fixtures in the best possible fashion. We don’t want to give up now and we need to grit our teeth to prepare for our match against Verona, despite only having one training session beforehand.
"The hope then is to recover a bit of energy over Christmas because our lads haven’t stopped, particularly with international commitments.”
The last meeting between Verona and Inter in a league game was on 9 July 2020. The two teams played to a 2-2 draw in an encounter which took place at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi.
