Inter were missing top striker Lautaro Martinez, who was out sick. But five goals in the first half made Lautaro’s absence a non-issue.
Joaquin Correa opened the scoring 17 minutes in with a deft chip over the keeper.
Thuram then scored two identical goals by dribbling around Lorenzo Montipo and finishing into an empty net.
Stefan de Vrij then finished off a cutback from Kristjan Asllani before Yann Aurel Bisseck completed the rout with an improvised shot as he fell to the ground in the box.
Correa nearly added another in second-half stoppage time, but his effort hit the woodwork.
Inter’s only loss across all competitions this season was a derby defeat to Milan in September.
They next play Fiorentina, who are in fine form themselves.
