Inter Milan and Como meet in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-finals at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Tuesday.
Inter Milan leads Serie A with 67 points from 27 matches, holding a 10-point lead over second-placed AC Milan. Their last match ended in a solid 2-0 win against Genoa, although they faced disappointment in the Champions League playoffs, losing both legs to Bodo/Glimt.
Como, under coach Cesc Fabregas, is having a strong season and is competing for European qualification, just three points away from the top four.
Inter Milan team news
Inter’s captain, Lautaro Martinez, is sidelined with a soleus muscle injury in his left calf, which he sustained during the European match against Bodo/Glimt. He is expected to be out for about four weeks.
France international Ange-Yoan Bonny is also a doubt due to a calf issue sustained in the recent win over Genoa.
Bonny has been training individually, making his participation in the semi-final uncertain.
Francesco Pio Esposito is likely to lead the attack, supported by Marcus Thuram, who is looking to regain form.
