Upon returning from the away game in Switzerland, which saw Inter triumph 0-1 against Young Boys after a complicated match, it’s now time to think about the next league match at Appiano Gentile. On Sunday, October 27th at 6:00 PM, the much-anticipated Inter-Juventus derby of Italy will be held at San Siro.
Simone Inzaghi will approach this match with a few absences, starting with Francesco Acerbi and Hakan Calhanoglu. Both, having been knocked out against Roma, will not have time to recover from the muscle strains they suffered. Moreover, Carlos Augusto will also miss the match after experiencing discomfort in the left thigh flexors last night.
According to Calciomercato.com, Tajon Buchanan is expected to get his first call-up of the season. The Canadian winger has fully recovered from the serious tibia injury he suffered in early July during the Canadian National Team’s participation in the Copa America. The former Bruges player, who had some slight fever symptoms a few days ago, has shaken off the flu-like syndrome and will start group training tomorrow.
Hence, there is a good chance he would be available for the Inter-Juventus match, which is great news for Inzaghi, especially after losing Carlos Augusto in the left lane.
