The championship returns, three months after Inter‘s last match in Serie A, and the first opponent of the season for the Nerazzurri is Torino, who arrive at San Siro eager to make an impression after a summer in which the Granata also changed coach: this evening, the two benches are occupied by Cristian Chivu, who arrived from Parma, and Marco Baroni, who last season was in charge of Lazio.
The Nerazzurri coach, for this first matchday of the championship, must do without the suspended Calhanoglu and Pio Esposito and has chosen to entrust the keys of his team’s midfield to Nicolò Barella, while the new summer signing Petar Sucic makes his Serie A debut as a starter.
