Inter vs. Verona: Club record in sight for Mancini's leaders

Inter will look to build on its 100 per cent record in Serie A this season when it welcomes Verona to San Siro.

Roberto Mancini's Inter can equal a club record of five successive wins at the start of a Serie A campaign when it hosts Verona at San Siro on Wednesday.

Sunday's 1-0 success over Chievo made it four out of four for Mancini's men in 2015-16, giving them maximum points and opening up a two-point lead over Torino at the top.

Mauro Icardi struck the crucial goal on the weekend – his first of the season – as Inter closed in on a perfect five-game start only previously achieved once before, in 1966-67.
