Inter is preparing for the away match in Udine, scheduled for today at 3 PM, with some changes compared to the eleven seen against Lecce in the rescheduled sixteenth round. Chivu is considering various solutions to best manage the squad’s energy.
As written by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the team trained yesterday at Appiano before flying to Trieste. The Romanian coach is evaluating some lineup doubts, mainly focused on the midfield and defense. In the middle of the pitch, Zielinski could be given a rest, with the surprise options Frattesi and Sucic ready to start from the first minute. The final decision will come only today, but Mkhitaryan seems destined for a starting spot in the next Champions League match against Arsenal.
As for the defense, Akanji could be the one sacrificed: Acerbi is currently favored to take his place, although the alternative de Vrij remains alive. In the rest of the lineup, compared to Wednesday’s match, the returns of Bisseck, Dimarco, and Luis Henrique are expected.
