Two clubs in opposite halves of the Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between Cesena and Inter Milan. The first-division clash scheduled for 1 p.m. ET will be held at the Stadio Dino Manuzzi and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on RAI Internazionale.
What They're Saying
Inter Milan manager Walter Mazzarri (via Football Italia): "Of course we are not happy after losing to Cagliari and Fiorentina, but the renewal process can have some bumps in the road. Football is not an exact science. If everyone works in the same direction, we can soon get back to being competitive."
"Is my time running out? No, mine starts tomorrow," he insisted. "We're only a few rounds in, and the process can be speeded up with points. We'll certainly try. Cesena are a team to be respected, as we've seen their positive results on home turf. We must do what we can and build our own destiny."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Inter Milan's Mateo Kovacic has two goals and an assist in seven league appearances this season. Always a danger on the ball, the 20-year-old is averaging 3.7 take-ons and 2.3 key passes.
Cesena's Projected Lineup (3-4-2-1): Leali; Volta, Lucchini, Capelli; Renzetti, Cascione, Feudis, Giorgi; Defrel, Brienza, Marilungo
