The Inter team will take the pitch in Germany on Tuesday night for their next commitment in the Champions League: they will visit the Bayer Leverkusen, the team that won the last Bundesliga. For Simone Inzaghi and his boys, the top European competition is going very well and there’s little left to secure direct qualification for the last sixteen.
The Piacenza coach is expected to once again choose a broad rotation. In the defense, Darmian might take Bastoni’s place, while on the left Carlos Augusto should give Dimarco a break. In the midfield, Frattesi and Zielinski are eager to play, while in attack, Lautaro is the only sure one of a shirt.
Coach Xabi Alonso is experiencing a small emergency in the attacking department because he has to do without quality offensive players like Boniface, Adli, and possibly even ex-Roma player Schick whose presence in this game remains in doubt. They might revisit a 4-5-1 formation a new module for the Germans with Wirtz as the main forward as was the case in the last German Cup match against Bayern Munich.
