Two clubs in opposite ends of the Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between AS Livorno and Inter Milan. The first-division clash scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at the Stadio Armando Picchi in Livorno and can be live streamed here free.
Though the two clubs are separated by a whopping 24 points in the Serie A table, Inter Milan manager Walter Mazzarri believes his men should be wary of a Livorno. The club, after all, is battling relegation from Italy's first division (h/t to Goal). "Every game in Serie A is tough," Mazzarri told reporters in his press conference. "They're all tricky, plus Livorno have strong support. They need points," he added.
"You need to approach every opponent in the best way possible right from the beginning, then when we have the ball we have to try and finish as soon as possible. We'll do everything we can to put in a good performance at Livorno."
