Moise Kean has returned from a shin issue and appeared in their recent Conference League match alongside Albert Gudmundsson in attack.
Roberto Piccoli might be benched if Kean starts, although Piccoli’s recent form could make it challenging for Kean to re-enter the lineup.
Inter Milan Team News
Captain Lautaro Martínez is sidelined with a calf injury and aims to return against Roma on Easter. Henrikh Mkhitaryan is out until early April due to a hamstring issue.
Alessandro Bastoni is doubtful because of a recurring shin/knee injury, having exited training early. Carlos Augusto is expected to fill in at left center-back. Cristian Chivu’s suspension adds more pressure on the team.
Hakan Calhanoglu has returned to the starting lineup after recovery, joining Nicolò Barella and Piotr Zielinski in midfield.
Marcus Thuram and emerging talent Francesco Pio Esposito are likely to lead the attack.
Form
Fiorentina
Fiorentina is unbeaten in their last four matches across competitions. Their recent 2-1 victory against Rakow Czestochowa allowed them to advance to the quarter-finals of the Conference League, boosting their morale.
They also had a strong 4-1 win against Cremonese in their last league match.
Inter Milan
Inter Milan is facing difficulties, with only one win in their last five matches. They recently drew 1-1 against Atalanta.
Prior to that, they lost to city rivals AC Milan in the derby. Despite their healthy lead in Serie A, Cristian Chivu’s team needs to avoid further slip-ups.

Inter Milan: Sommer; Bisseck, Akanji, Augusto; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Zielinski, Dimarco; Thuram, Esposito
