After the stop in the derby, Inter is called for an immediate redemption, to avoid the third consecutive match without victories in the league, the fourth considering also the Champions League. In the 6th round of Serie A, the Nerazzurri will face Udinese, coming from a bad defeat with Roma, but so far having a great start to the season.
For the match at the Bluenergy Stadium, Inzaghi should rely on the usual starters, with some doubts in midfield. The first concerns Barella’s conditions, who came out battered from the derby: in his place, Frattesi could return as a starter. Zielinski is also chomping at the bit, ready to replace a somewhat tarnished Mkhitaryan till now. The confirmation of the Thuram-Lautaro Martinez duo in front is likely.
