(Reuters) - Inter Milan will look to get their campaign back on track when they host Fiorentina on Saturday knowing they could suffer a third Serie A defeat in a row for the first time in six years.
Their recent defeats against lowly Spezia and Juventus before the international break left Inter in third place on 50 points, two points behind Lazio in second and only three above fifth-placed AS Roma.
This is the first time Inter have suffered this many defeats after 27 games since 2011-12, when they ended in sixth place. They are quick out of the blocks, too. Only Hellas Verona have scored a higher percentage of their goals in Serie A this season in the opening 30 minutes than Fiorentina .
