Alexis Sanchez is expected to partner Lautaro Martinez in Inter’s attack against Genoa tonight.

It kicks off at 19:45 GMT. It’s the final match of Serie A Week 27.

The Nerazzurri can move 15 points clear of second-placed Juventus at the top of the Serie A table as the Old Lady suffered a 2-1 to Napoli last night.

Simone Inzaghi can’t rely on the suspended Alessandro Bastoni plus the injured Juan Cuadrado, Stefano Sensi and Hakan Calhanoglu. Marcus Thuram is available but will start on the bench, making room for Sanchez and Lautaro in attack.

Carlos Augusto will replace Bastoni in a three-man defence, joining Stefan de Vrij and Benjamin Pavard.

Genoa will line up Italy international Mateo Retegui and their leading scorer, Albert Gudmundsson, in attack. Ex-Milan man Junior Messias is favourite over Ruslan Malinovskyi in central midfield.

Only Ridgeciano Haps, Alan Matturro and David Ankeye are unavailable for the Grifone.

Inter-Gernoa: probable line-ups

Inter (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, De Vrij, Carlos Augusto; Dumfries, Barella, Asllani, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Sanchez, Lautaro Martinez.

Genoa (3-5-2): Martinez; De Winter, Bani, Vasquez; Sabelli, Messias, Badelj, Frendrup, Martin; Retegui, Gudmundsson.
