Inter Milan are set to take the field against Bologna with a line-up very similar to the one that secured a key win away at Atalanta last weekend.

Italian newspapers are largely aligned in their reporting, suggesting that Cristian Chivu has no intention of making wholesale changes for Sunday night’s Serie A fixture at San Siro.

The approach reflects both continuity and trust in a group that delivered a strong performance on December 28.

According to Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews, a few marginal doubts remain. In defence, Yann Bisseck is competing with Stefan de Vrij for a starting role.

Any meaningful rotation is more likely to arrive in midweek.
