Venezia sit last in the Serie A standings and welcome Inter Milan to Pier Luigi Penzo on Wednesday. Our Venezia vs Inter Milan prediction starts from one premise: this is lopsided.
Nicola's side have lost 9 of their last 10 Serie A games. Sunday's narrow defeat at Genoa left them rooted to the bottom of the standings with no sign of a turnaround.
Inter are undefeated in their last 18 Serie A games. Chivu is rotating with a derby on the horizon, but even a reshuffled Inter carries far more quality than Venezia can field.
Inter have won their last 5 games against Venezia in all competitions. For the hosts this is about survival points. For Inter, it is about keeping a long unbeaten run alive.
Venezia vs Inter Milan Recent Results
Venezia have won 1 of their last 10 games against all opponents. Seven defeats from their opening eight Serie A outings tell the story. Counterattacks are their best weapon, with Akor Adams and John Yeboah leading the line, but finishing is rated a clear weakness for a side badly short on cutting edge.
Inter have won 7 of their last 10 games against all opponents. Their attack leads Serie A with 23 goals, and Piotr Zielinski's stoppage-time penalty capped Sunday's comeback against Fiorentina. Marcus Thuram has been the sharpest finisher, though the forward is likely rested here.

Venezia vs Inter Milan Prediction & Best Picks
Our Prediction
Our prediction is an Inter win with goals at both ends. The Venezia vs Inter Milan betting odds price the visitors at -250 (Bet365) on the moneyline. Our projection has Inter scoring 3 goals while still crediting Venezia with enough to find the net. Even with Thuram rested, Inter's depth is too much for a bottom side that struggles to defend counterattacks and set pieces.

Our projection puts both teams scoring at 66.49%, and with Venezia's counterattacks rated their best weapon against an Inter defense rated weak at keeping opponents quiet, it leads our Venezia vs Inter Milan best picks.
Over 3.5 Goals This is the Over side of the 3.5 line in the Total Goals Over/Under market. Our projected total is 4.21 goals, and a Venezia back line that struggles with set pieces, through balls and long shots is not built to keep this one quiet.

Venezia vs Inter Milan Talking Points
Nicola said his squad needs perfection to take points off Inter, and that is the honest read. With the Derby della Madonnina against AC Milan close behind, Chivu is resting Thuram, Çalhanoğlu and Akanji, yet Barella and Bastoni still anchor this XI. Across the recorded previous meetings, Inter hold 5 wins and Venezia have none. The only other meeting ended in a tie, and a rotated Inter still looks good enough to add to that tally.
