Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi says they must not underestimate Empoli ahead of Friday night's clash.

Inter will take the Serie A lead with victory.

“Empoli are a quality side who have already achieved their target for the season, so it's going to be one of those very dangerous games for us," Inzaghi told Inter TV.

“We need to be very careful, because Empoli are organised and will come here to play their game.

“We won a game that was not simple and I am very happy with the performance in Udine, where the team showed a lot of character and determination. We wanted this victory and achieved it with the concentration of a top team."

He continued: “As we reach the end of the campaign, I think technical and tactical details are going to be less important than motivation and determination. We must give 120 per cent tomorrow against an Empoli side that plays good football.

“Playing before or after Milan makes no difference, we need to focus on ourselves without looking at what the others are doing.

“The stadium will be sold out again tomorrow and I am sure the fans will give us that extra push."
