Barring any last-minute changes, manager Simone Inzaghi is set to field a midfield trio of Barella, Asllani, and Zielinski. Although these players have shared the pitch before, this will mark their first time starting a match together. This unexpected lineup is a direct result of recent injury setbacks in the squad.
The team’s midfield woes began with Calhanoglu’s injury and have now been compounded by Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s sudden unavailability. During Friday’s training session, the Armenian midfielder experienced discomfort in his adductor region, effectively ruling him out of Sunday’s match.
Mkhitaryan’s condition remains a concern for the club. If he continues to feel discomfort on Saturday, the medical staff may opt for further diagnostic tests to assess the extent of the issue.
