Speaking at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday night, Inzaghi confirmed that everyone apart from Benjamin Pavard will be available for selection against Barca.

There are still question marks over Marcus Thuram, who has missed the last three matches with an adductor injury, but returned to training with the rest of the first-team on Tuesday.

“Thuram did his first training session with the team today, we haven’t had him since Bayern. We’ve done a good job, in short, he gave us good signs, but I have to evaluate tomorrow morning and I will speak to him again,” Inzaghi told the press, reported via TMW.

“The others, apart from Pavard, are all there. I can play Bisseck, Darmian but also De Vrij as the third defender.”

And on Dimarco, he added: “Federico is fine. The team is doing well on a physical level.

“He had a problem, he remained available and I think he played some great games. Tomorrow he will play from the first minute and then we will see how the match develops.”
