Inter start Mehdi Taremi with Marcus Thuram, as Lautaro Martinez is not fully fit for the Champions League clash with Erling Haaland’s Manchester City.
It kicks off at the Etihad Stadium at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).
You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from this game and Bologna-Shakhtar Donetsk on the LIVEBLOG.
This is a replay of the 2023 Champions League Final, which saw City squeeze out a 1-0 win.
The Nerazzurri are stuttering after a 1-1 draw with Monza on Sunday, as Federico Dimarco, Marko Arnautovic and Tajon Buchanan are injured, while Lautaro Martinez is only fit for the bench.
He could’ve started if not for the fact Inter have the Derby della Madonnina against rivals Milan coming up on Sunday, so Taremi partners Thuram to begin with.
Hakan Calhanoglu, Francesco Acerbi, Nicolò Barella and Alessandro Bastoni return after they were rested at the weekend, but Yann Bisseck is an interesting choice in defence.
Piotr Zielinski gets only his second start for the club, replacing Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Manchester City have won all five games played this season, including the Community Shield on penalties against Manchester United.
They too have a massive fixture coming up against Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday.
Nathan Aké and Oscar Bobb are injured, while Savinho is struggling with a hamstring issue, but still starts, while Phil Foden is again benched.
It’s essentially a full-strength side, though, with Rodri guarding the midfield and Kevin de Bruyne supporting unstoppable hitman Haaland.
The 24-year-old has scored nine goals in just four Premier League games this season and in his career has 41 goals in 39 Champions League appearances.
