Salernitana are vying to pick up their first three points of the new Serie-A campaign as three draws and three losses in their opening six games have left them trailing in the 17th position.
Facing Empoli midweek, Tommaso Baldanzi's strike midway through the first half turned out to be the point of difference as Sousa's side were handed another defeat in a disastrous campaign for them thus far. The home side have never defeated Inter since reclaiming a spot back into Italy's premier division.
They would be looking to replicate their heroics from last season when Antonio Candreva's thunderous strike in injury time salvaged the Granata a fantastic draw.
Inter's 2-1 defeat against Sassuolo at the San Siro might have ruined their perfect start to the campaign but Simone Inzaghi would be hoping to leave the result behind them and produce a scintillating performance on the pitch.
Inzaghi hoped to see better precision from his side as Inter look to win their sixth game of the campaign and continue to lead the Italian division. With AC Milan breathing down the neck in the race to the Scudetto, the Nerazzurri would want to stay ahead of their neighbours and pave the way to a title winning campaign.
