One point behind Inter are Sampdoria, who are now in second place after a 2-0 victory away to AC Milan, and Il Doria secured the win thanks to a double from Greek midfielder Antonis Siatounis.
He opened the scoring in the 38th minute when Daniele Montevago held the ball up, turned, and supplied the midfielder with a through ball to run onto, and then he curled into the net with his left foot after a couple of stepovers.
Siatounis doubled the Blucerchiati’s lead 12 minutes into the second half after Lorenzo Di Stefano laid the ball off into his path and struck a low shot from outside of the penalty area.
Meanwhile, Roma are third on 48 points with Juventus but they are above I Bianconeri on the table thanks to a superior head-to-head record. I Giallorossi defeated nine-man Empoli 1-0 after Giacomo Siniega and Klemen Hvalic received straight red cards and Felix Afena-Gyan scored in the dying minutes of the game.
