Inter are fresh from beating leaders Napoli and bring back Lautaro Martinez to partner Edin Dzeko against impressive Monza.
It kicks off at the U-Power Stadium at 19.45 GMT.
The Nerazzurri are fresh from ending Napoli’s unbeaten record and blowing the Scudetto race wide open.
Marcelo Brozovic is still injured and Lautaro Martinez gets his first start since winning the World Cup with Argentina, sending Romelu Lukaku to the bench in favour of on-form Dzeko.
Denzel Dumfries and Stefan de Vrij are again dropped for Matteo Darmian and Francesco Acerbi.
Monza really turned a corner since Raffaele Palladino took over as coach in September and they have seven points from the last four games, in which they conceded only two goals.
They started 2023 with a 1-1 draw away to Fiorentina, but are still missing injured Stefano Sensi – on loan from Inter – Nicolò Rovella and Giulio Donati.
Pablo Mari made his competitive comeback last week off the bench, just a couple of months after he was stabbed in a shopping centre attack on October 27, and here is in the starting XI.
Dany Mota Carvalho supports Andrea Petagna upfront.
Monza: Di Gregorio; Marlon, Pablo Mari, Izzo; Birindelli, Pessina, Machin, Carlos Augusto; Ciurria, Dany Mota; Petagna
Inter: Onana; Skriniar, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez
