Today is the eve of Napoli-Inter, one of the most important matches of the season for the Nerazzurri who managed to overcome the Partenopei team at the last bend. In the last round, the defeat at Como of the boys trained by Antonio Conte and the victory of Simone Inzaghi’s team at home against Genoa, resulted in the leapfrogging in the standings.
Now at the top is the Inter who are preparing for one of the most complicated away games of the year after losing the last two matches played away: first in Florence and then in Turin with Juventus. As pointed out by La Gazzetta dello Sport today, the Nerazzurri coach Simone Inzaghi is also thinking about a possible formation change.
For the away game at the Maradona, the Inter coach is considering switching to a 4-4-2 system, a choice already made in the past and an option that could disrupt Napoli’s tactical preparation. With the addition of an extra centre-back like Bisseck in the second half, Inzaghi can set up his team with a 4 man defence where Dumfries would play as a midfielder and Pavard as the right back.
In defence, the left back could be Bastoni if more coverage is needed and Mkhitaryan who would position himself on the left midfield leaving space in the middle for Barella and Calhanoglu. This hypothesis for Inzaghi came from the desire to try to break through on the left flank to hurt Napoli.
