According to the latest reports, Alessandro Bastoni is not fit enough to start the Coppa Italia Final, so Danilo D’Ambrosio will play for Inter against Juventus this evening.

The Final kicks off at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).

The winner will be decided on the night after 90 minutes, or if required extra time and even penalties.

Bastoni has been out of action since the 3-1 win over Roma on April 23, having sustained a calf injury following his recovery from an ankle knock.

He is back in the squad and there had been hopes he could start this evening, but the latest reports from Sky Sport Italia and more suggest Simone Inzaghi will not run that risk.

Instead, D’Ambrosio is tipped to take his place in the back three with Stefan de Vrij and Milan Skriniar.

Probable line-ups

Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, D’Ambrosio; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Lautaro Martinez, Dzeko

Juventus (4-4-2): Perin; Danilo, De Ligt, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Cuadrado, Zakaria, Rabiot, Bernardeschi; Dybala, Vlahovic
