Four days after the incredible feat achieved in Germany at Bayern Munich‘s stadium, Inter must also give themselves a wake-up call in the Serie A championship, following last week’s disappointing draw against Parma. This afternoon at 6:00 PM, Simone Inzaghi‘s team will host Cagliari at San Siro, seeking to return to winning ways and temporarily extend their lead to +6 over Napoli.
A match that holds numerous hidden dangers coming at a crucial point of the season, facing a team embroiled in a desperate fight against relegation. As reported this morning by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inzaghi will be somewhat forced to rotate some players in the squad to ensure rest and preserve the fitness of key starters.
According to the latest news on the probable line-ups for Inter-Cagliari, several starters such as Acerbi, Mkhitaryan, and Thuram are expected to start the game on the bench. Taking their place in the starting line-up will be de Vrij at the heart of defense, Frattesi as a midfielder, and Arnautovic—currently favored ahead of Correa—to partner Lautaro Martinez in attack. Also stepping in will be Zalewski, making his first start on the right side in place of Darmian, while Dimarco returns to the left flank.
