Juventus stumbled in a 1-1 draw at Hellas Verona last night, while Milan face an extremely difficult trip to Roma, so it’s the ideal opportunity for the Nerazzurri to break away at the top.
However, Genoa are no pushovers, losing just one Serie A game since Ballardini took over from Rolando Maran in late December.
They’ve held Lazio, Atalanta and Verona to draws, beating Napoli, Spezia and Bologna.
Achraf Hakimi is suspended for Inter, with Arturo Vidal only fit for the bench, so again Christian Eriksen starts in midfield with Marcelo Brozovic.
Matteo Darmian steps in for Hakimi, while Lautaro Martinez partners Romelu Lukaku.
Genoa are without Luca Pellegrini and Davide Biraschi, but have improved a great deal since Kevin Strootman arrived from Olympique Marseille.
Marko Pjaca starts with Gianluca Scamacca upfront, but Ballardini has plenty of options including Mattia Destro, Eldor Shomurodov and ex-Inter veteran Goran Pandev.
Cristian Zapata was expected to miss out through injury, but is surprisingly in the starting XI.
Genoa have a famously shocking record in this fixture, losing their last seven trips to San Siro, without a win here since 1994.
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, de Vrij, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Brozovic, Eriksen, Perisic; Lukaku, Lautaro Martinez
Genoa (3-5-2): Perin; Zapata, Radovanovic, Goldaniga; Ghiglione, Melegoni, Rovella, Strootman, Czyborra; Scamacca, Pjaca
