The Nerazzurri secured their Champions League qualification this week by beating Viktoria Plzen 4-0, including a goal from Lukaku just four minutes into his comeback from two months out injured.

They are coming off three straight Serie A wins to climb back up the table, despite still missing Marcelo Brozovic with a thigh injury.

There are few changes for Simone Inzaghi, with Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Nicolò Barella again forming the midfield.

It is a special night for Sampdoria coach Dejan Stankovic, who was in the Inter squad that won the Treble in 2010.

So far on the Blucerchiati bench, he has earned a draw with Bologna, lost narrowly at Roma and won 1-0 away to Cremonese to climb off the foot of the table.

Fabio Quagliarella, Harry Winks and Manuel De Luca are out of action.

Inter: Onana; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Lautaro Martinez, Dzeko

Sampdoria: Audero; Ferrari, Colley, Amione; Bereszynski, Villar, Djuricic, Leris; Caputo, Gabbiadini
