Romelu Lukaku is favourite to start in Inter‘s attack against Porto, with Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Nicolò Barella in midfield.
The Nerazzurri host Sergio Conceiçao’s side at the Stadio Meazza tonight in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16.
Only Joaquin Correa is out of action for the Nerazzurri, while Lukaku is favourite over Dzeko to partner with Lautaro Martinez in Inter’s attack.
There are a few more doubts for Inzaghi in midfield and defence, but Stefan de Vrij and Marcelo Brozovic seem likely to start on the bench, with Acerbi getting the nod in central defence.
Former Serie A star Conceiçao must cope without Gabriel Veron and Francisco Meixedo.
Inter won the last two home games in the competition against Barcelona and Viktoria Plzen. They have the second-best record in Serie A games this season, with 30 points in 12 matches.
However, this will only be Inzaghi’s fifth match as a coach in a knock-out Champions League match. The Italian tactician has one win and three defeats so far.
Inter vs. Porto – probable line-ups
Inter (3-5-2): Onana; Skriniar, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Lukaku, Lautato Martinez.
Porto (4-4-2): Diogo Costa; Joao Mari, Pepe, Marcano, Zaidu; Franc, Grujic, Eustaquio, Galeno; Pepe, Taremi.
