Inter Milan Probable Lineup For Lecce Clash – Inzaghi To Make Two Changes | OneFootball

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi will be making a couple of tweaks to his starting lineup as he prepares to take on Lecce this weekend.

The Nerazzurri started their Serie A title defense campaign on a relatively slow note. They had to settle for a 2-2 draw against Genoa away from home.

This Saturday, the Beneamata will play in front of their home supporters at San Siro for the first time this season.

Inter will host the wounded Lecce who suffered a 0-4 defeat at the hands of Atalanta last weekend.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sprot via FcInterNews, Inzaghi will make two changes to the starting lineup.

At the back, Benjamin Pavard will reclaim his usual starting berth. Therefore, Yann Bisseck will have to make way following a mixed bag at the Luigi Ferraris.

The Frenchman will join the Italian duo of Francesco Acerbi and Alessandro Bastoni in the three-man backline. Yann Sommer will start between the posts.

The second change is also on the right side, as Denzel Dumfries comes in for Matteo Darmian. Inzaghi has been alternating between the two players for several years now, and could do the same during the course of the match.

On the opposite side, Federico Dimarco will maintain his spoke in the lineup.

In the middle of the park, the source tips Henrikh Mkhitaryan to preserve his spot despite growing pressure from Davide Frattesi.

Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicolo Barella will join the Armenian veteran while Piotr Zielinski could make his Inter debut from the bench after recovering from an injury.

Finally, Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram are tipped for starting berths upfront. Hence, Mehdi Taremi might have to settle for another second-half cameo.

Inter Milan Probable XI (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Lautaro, Thuram.
