Inter arrives in Emilia-Romagna with some injuries affecting their midfield and wing-back positions. Nicolo Barella and Hakan Calhanoglu will miss the match, leaving Cristian Chivu without his preferred central lineup. Barella is out until mid-February, while Calhanoglu is sidelined for a bit longer. Denzel Dumfries is also recovering from an issue expected to keep him out until early March.
