It's becoming a big season for Inter Milan who returned to the top of Serie A on Sunday evening. Now they turn their attention to the Italian Cup and the first leg of their semi-final against Napoli. Inter beat AC Milan 4-2 at the weekend making it three league and cup wins in a row. They are unbeaten in their last ten matches in all competitions and only Barcelona have beaten them in their last 16. You have to go back to October for their last defeat by an Italian side and that was Juventus. In the Italian Cup, Inter have recorded wins over Cagliari and Fiorentina, both being home wins.

Napoli are having a disappointing season but they had been showing signs of recovery. They had won three games in a row, including victories over Lazio in this competition and Juventus in Serie A. That good run ended at the weekend as they were beaten 3-2 at home by relegation threatened Lecce. That defeat left Napoli 11th in the table and they might need to win the Italian Cup to qualify for Europe next season. Only two of their last eight away games have been won and this is going to be a tough task for them in the first leg of this semi-final. Go for a home win here.
