An Inter side on the charge to defend their Scudetto host European hopefuls Roma in an electric Serie A clash this evening.
The match between the Nerazzurri and the Giallorossi kicks off at 17.00 UK time at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan.
Simone Inzaghi only has to manage one absence for this evening’s clash against Roma; Arturo Vidal is unavailable due to an ankle issue.
Things are a little tougher in the Italian capital as Jose Mourinho will be without Daniel Fuzato, Nicolo Zaniolo and Bryan Cristante. The latter is suffering from physical issues whilst the former two are suspended.
Inter and Roma have met twice so far this season, once in Serie A and once in the Coppa Italia. The Nerazzurri won both meetings, 3-0 and 2-0 respectively.
Probable line-ups for Inter vs. Roma:
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Dzeko, Lautaro.
Roma (3-4-2-1): Rui Patricio; Mancini, Smalling, Ibanez; Karsdorp, Sergio Oliveira, Veretout, Zalewski; Pellegrini, Mkhitaryan; Abraham.
Wow! Out of a possible 22 starters between the teams, only 4 in total are Italian. Very, very sad!
Dan, Indeed!! How can we complain about the national team,what can we possibly expect from players who don’t play week to week.
Agree with comments. It is club management policy, etc..italy need something like athletic or real Sociedad to return to level…. Soon Italy will be represented by players plying their trade in serie b…
I think you guys should check the history of inter milan before you guys start complaning about foreigh player. I expect more in roman side anyway but not inter milan.
To Inter for ever, not specifically to inter , unfortunately this is the norm in Serie A these days, soon we will be like Scotland, pretty famous clubs and league but not disappointing inetrnationally..
