Marcus Thuram and Pio Esposito will start in the Inter attack in a crucial Champions League match away at Feyenoord.
It kicks off at 21:00 CET [20:00 GMT], the same time as Manchester United-Roma.
Inter have won once and lost twice in the first three Champions League games this season, so they need another win tonight to keep their Round of 16 qualification hopes alive.
The defending Serie A champions have travelled to Rotterdam without the injured Lautaro Martinez, John Stones, Curtis Jones and Luis Henrique.
They want to bounce back after a 3-1 loss in the derby della Madonnina this past weekend. Pio Esposito returns to the starting XI and, according to several sources, including Sky Sport, will join Marcus Thuram in attack.
Alessandro Bastoni is suspended, so Carlos Augusto will start in a three-man defence, joining Manuel Akanji and Yann Bisseck.
Piotr Zielinski, Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicolò Barella are expected to start in central midfield, though Henrikh Mkhitaryan is also in contention for a starting spot.
There’s also a doubt in the right midfield spot with Djed Spence favourite over Andy Diouf.
The match will be broadcast live on TNT Sports 5 and HBO Max in the UK and Ireland and on Paramount+ in the USA. Football Italia will provide live updates via a liveblog.
