Italian champions Inter Milan hit the front in Serie A prior to the international break and head coach Simone Inzaghi will expect his team to maintain their unbeaten run when they head to Monza on Sunday.

Juventus, Torino and Udinese are all tied with the Nerazzurri on seven points while winless Milan will hope to get something going when they visit Venezia.

We have previewed every fixture from the third round in Italy's top flight.

Como vs Bologna (Saturday, 2pm)

Como are playing at home for the first time since their promotion and can grind out a point against Bologna. The visitors have played out two 1-1 draws already and will have one eye on their midweek Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk.

Score prediction: 1-1

Empoli vs Juventus (Saturday, 5pm)

Empoli are unbeaten but they face their toughest test so far when Juventus come to the Carlo Castellani Stadium. The Old Lady won 3-0 in their last road outing and can claim the victory, albeit by a less emphatic scoreline.   

Score prediction: 0-2

AC Milan vs Venezia (Saturday, 7.45pm)

Milan have made a sluggish start to the season but should pick up their first victory at home to Venezia. Despite going winless so far, Paulo Fonseca's Rossoneri have netted five goals in three games while their visitors have been blanked in their last two.

Score prediction: 2-0

Genoa vs Roma (Sunday, 11.30am)

It is hard to have much faith in Roma on the road following goalless draws with Cagliari and Juventus and they could find Genoa tough to break down. The hosts held Inter to a 2-2 draw in their season opener.

Score prediction: 1-1

Atalanta vs Fiorentina (Sunday, 2pm)

Atalanta stumbled prior to the international break, losing to Torino and Inter on the road, but they were a better side in Bergamo last season and can bounce back against Fiorentina. La Viola should at least get on the scoresheet.

Score prediction: 2-1

Torino vs Lecce (Sunday, 2pm)

Torino have claimed seven points from a possible nine, only dropping points against Milan, and they look set for a low-scoring win over Lecce. The visitors won last time out at home to Cagliari but they have looked generally toothless.

Score prediction: 2-0

Cagliari vs Napoli (Sunday, 2pm)

Napoli posted two home wins prior to the international break but this trip to Sardinia could prove tricky. Cagliari have drawn back-to-back home matches and this fixture resulted in a 1-1 stalemate in each of the last two seasons.

Score prediction: 1-1

Monza vs Inter (Sunday, 2pm)

Inter have scored eight goals in three matches and their title defence should gather speed at Monza. The hosts will aim to keep it tight but the champions won 5-1 in this fixture last term and can cut loose again.

Score prediction: 3-0

Parma vs Udinese (Monday 5.30pm)

Parma saw off Milan 2-1 before suffering late heartache when beaten by the same scoreline at Napoli last time out. They can claim a victory over Udinese, although the visitors have also been in decent form and can find the net.

Score prediction: 2-1

Lazio vs Verona (Monday, 7.45pm)

Lazio are unbeaten in eight home matches and can edge past Verona at the Stadio Olimpico. However, the visitors have beaten Napoli 3-0 and Genoa 2-0 this season which suggests they can also make their mark.

Score prediction: 3-1
