Inter Milan team news
Inter will be without several important players for this match. Captain Lautaro Martínez is sidelined after suffering a calf strain during the Champions League loss to Bodo/Glimt and is expected to miss multiple games.
Midfielders Nicolò Barella and Hakan Çalhanoğlu are also unavailable due to suspensions from their recent victory over Juventus, leading coach Cristian Chivu to rethink his midfield strategy.
