Former Inter Milan coach Gigi Simoni says he's been impressed by Stefano Pioli.

Pioli has revived Inter since succeeding Frank de Boer.

“It wasn't only De Boer's fault, of course, but Pioli is one of us with the mentality of Italian football and a side that plays to get the result. That is our tradition," said Simoni.

“Juventus are objectively superior to Inter, but the Nerazzurri have already won this season and can do very well, causing the Bianconeri a lot of problems.

“Juve are a little inferior to their previous campaigns, so this is an uncertain match and Inter can harbour ambitions going in."
