Handanovic parried Cyril Thereau’s angled drive, while a Di Natale free kick inched wide of the upright.

“Now is the time of Miranda and Murillo, two players who have come to Milan with our characteristics and want to do even better”.

Brozovic added gloss to the scoreline with a brilliant curling strike from 20 yards to wrap up a complete performance for Mancini’s side.

Domizzi was having a nightmare and he almost scored an own goal after Icardi caused havoc in the box, the defender’s needless intervention sending the ball dribbling just wide before Adem Ljajic prodded wide.

Serie A league leaders Inter Milan will be playing away from home this weekend as they travel to Udine to play Udinese in the Serie A. Both teams will see this as an important game.

Despite the fact Inter are leading the way in Serie A, their usually on-fire frontman has been struggling for goals this season.

A strong defence has been the foundation to Inter’s success this season, with Gonzalo Higuain’s brace in the 2-1 defeat to Napoli the only goals Handanovic has conceded in their past six league matches. “Out of 15 games he’s played [12]”.

Palermo eased their relegation concerns, moving up to 14th with 18 points after defeating Frosinone 4-1.

But Aleksandar Trajkovski struck after the break and Alberto Gilardino added a late fourth as Palermo ran away with it.

As far as personnel are concerned, Inter will have to play this match without Danilo D’Ambrosio, who is serving a one-match ban after being sent off in last week’s 1-0 victory over Genoa.

The match between Sassuolo and Torino was postponed because of fog.

In a dramatic last 10 minutes, Diego Perotti saw red for the home side, before Luca Rossettini netted the victor forBologna, who then saw Amadou Diawara dismissed for a second bookable offence.
