Simone Inzaghi must cope without Joaquin Correa, who is expected to return to action next week when the Serie A champions meet Shakhtar Donetsk in their second Champions League group stage game.

Therefore, Edin Dzeko and Lautaro Martinez once again get the nod up front against La Dea.

Denzel Dumfries is expected to start at right wing-back with Matteo Darmian on the bench.
