Venezia boss Paolo Zanetti will be without Luca Antonio Fiordilino for the visit of the champions, with the midfielder nursing a hernia.
Similarly, Michael Svoboda is also sidelined through injury, with the rest of the squad otherwise healthy.
Stefan de Vrij could make his return from a hamstring injury this weekend in a boost for Simone Inzaghi.
However, Christian Eriksen won’t feature, while Alexis Sanchez is still a couple of weeks away from returning.
Venezia (4-3-1-2): Romero; Mazzocchi, Caldara, Ceccaroni, Haps; Busio, Vacca, Ampadu; Aramu; Okereke, Johnsen.
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, de Vrij, Bastoni; Darmian, Vidal, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Dzeko, Martinez.
Remove the Lazio defeat and Inter have enjoyed a lot of success away from home this season, which has been built on their defensive solidity.
Venezia stunned Roma at the Pier Luigi Penzo Stadium earlier this season, but the Nerazzurri are a more streetwise outfit than Jose Mourinho’s side and should be able to manage the game better.
Prediction: Venezia 0-2 Inter
