April 11 (Reuters) – Inter Milan, with the league title all but wrapped up, hope to maintain their push to break the Serie A points record but host a resurgent relegation-battling Cagliari on Sunday.Simone
Inzaghi’s side have 82 points, 14 ahead of AC Milan with seven games left, and are on course to beat their own points best of 97. However, breaking the overall points record of 102 held by Juventus leaves no margin for error.
Juve set the mark when they won the 2013-14 title and Inter must win all of their remaining matches to reach 103.
Inter face several sides fighting for survival, including Sassuolo, Frosinone and Hellas Verona. First up is Cagliari, whose recent form has pulled them out of the relegation zone.
Four straight defeats dropped Cagliari to 19th in February but since then Claudio Ranieri’s side have lost once in seven. They come to San Siro after a 2-1 home win over Atalanta.
