Roberto Mancini’s men remain utterly unpredictable, capable of sliding from first to fifth place in Serie A over the course of six weeks, yet crushing Juventus 3-0 in the Coppa Italia semi-final on Wednesday.

Juve went through anyway in a penalty shoot-out, 3-3 on aggregate, so which Inter will we see this evening?

Samir Handanovic has pulled out with flu symptoms and Stevan Jovetic is injured, so Juan Pablo Carrizo starts in goal – just as he did in the Coppa midweek.

Icardi returns to the starting XI along with Joao Miranda and Jeison Murillo, who were suspended against Juventus.

Adem Ljajic, Rodrigo Palacio and Ivan Perisic are back in a 4-2-3-1 formation, but Marcelo Brozovic is benched.

Palermo are desperate and now only one point clear of the relegation zone.

Achraf Lazaar and Edoardo Goldaniga haven’t made the trip, but Franco Vazquez is fit to partner veteran hitman Alberto Gilardino.

Ex-Milan midfielder Bryan Cristante was expected to start, but he is benched again in favour of Ivaylo Chochev.

Goalkeeper and captain Stefano Sorrentino is back after his injury problems.

The Sicilians have never won a Serie A visit to San Siro, earning eight draws and 19 defeats.
