How Inter Milan could line up against Slavia Prague

By Darren Plant, Senior Reporter | 15 September 2019

Ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash between Inter Milan and Slavia Prague, Sports Mole looks at how the Italian giants could line up at San Siro.

Inter Milan make their return to the Champions League against Slavia Prague having put together a run of three successive wins in Serie A.

While Inter have twice benefited from their opponents having a man sent off, Antonio Conte will be delighted with victories over Lecce, Cagliari and Udinese.

However, I Nerazzurri face an important week, with the showdown versus Slavia on Tuesday night coming before the derby with AC Milan at the weekend.

Here, Sports Mole predicts how Inter Milan may line up for the clash with the Czech outfit at San Siro.

Conte has no fresh injury concerns ahead of their European opener, leaving open the possibility of the head coach naming an unchanged starting lineup.

Alexis Sanchez - on loan from Manchester United - made his debut off the bench at the weekend, although the Chilean will likely remain among the replacements on Tuesday.

While Stefano Sensi and Romelu Lukaku are almost certain starters in attack, Conte must decide whom to select from Matteo Politano and Lautaro Martinez.

Roberto Gagliardini is pushing for an appearance in midfield after being given over an hour off the bench in two league matches, but Marcelo Brozovic and Nicolo Barella are expected to keep their places.

Andrea Ranocchia will likely remain as a substitute after Inter kept a clean sheet against Udinese on Saturday evening.
