As Inter Milan prepare for their upcoming Supercoppa Italiana campaign in Saudi Arabia, manager Simone Inzaghi is poised to field his strongest possible line-up for Saturday's Serie A clash.
As Inter Milan prepare for their upcoming Supercoppa Italiana campaign in Saudi Arabia, manager Simone Inzaghi is poised to field his strongest possible line-up for Saturday’s Serie A clash.
The Nerazzurri will be without Benjamin Pavard due to injury, while Francesco Acerbi’s availability remains uncertain. However, Matteo Darmian is expected to return to the squad after missing last week’s victory over Como.
Captain Lautaro Martinez is set to partner Marcus Thuram in attack. The Argentine striker has been in impressive form against Cagliari, netting nine goals in as many league encounters. Notably, five of his last six Serie A goals have come in away fixtures, highlighting his effectiveness on the road.
Cagliari, meanwhile, face a single absence in Zito Luvumbo, who is sidelined with an ankle sprain. Despite this, manager Davide Nicola is contemplating several changes to his lineup. One potential alteration could see Nicolas Viola challenging Gianluca Gaetano for a starting role in support of lone striker Roberto Piccoli.
Leonardo Pavoletti, Cagliari’s experienced super-sub, recently etched his name in club history by moving to fifth place on the Rossoblu’s all-time Serie A scoring list following his goal against Venezia. However, the veteran forward is likely to start the match from the bench.
Cagliari (3-5-2): Sherri; Zappa, Luperto, Palomino; Zortea, Adopo, Makoumbou, Marin, Augello; Viola; Piccoli
Inter Milan (3-5-2): Sommer; Bisseck, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Thuram
