Como Vs Inter Milan – Crunch Meeting For The Scudetto: Cristian Chivu Expected To Field Strongest Starting XI | OneFootball

Runaway Serie A leaders Inter Milan will take on top-four hopefuls Como in a mouth-watering fixture at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Sunday.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Cristian Chivu is unwilling to take any risks and is set to field his strongest starting XI.

Inter Milan bounced back from a three-game winless league streak last weekend with a dominant 5-2 home win over Roma.

However, there’s no room for complacency, as the Nerazzurri aim to lift their 21st Scudetto in Chivu’s first season at San Siro.

Indeed, the 20-time Italian champions boast a seven-point lead over reigning holders Napoli, with only seven games left to play.

Inter Milan to Face Como at Full Strength

Chivu can once again call upon his talismanic striker Lautaro Martinez.

Indeed, El Toro pained his return from injury with flying colors, netting his second league double in Sunday’s rout of Roma.

Therefore, the Argentine superstar is likely to lead the line at the Sinigaglia Stadium, probably alongside Marcus Thuram.

Interestingly, Sven-Goran Eriksson’s Lazio remain the only side in Serie A history to squander a seven-point lead at this stage of the campaign.

Keen to avoid the ignominy of a late-season collapse, Inter will not underestimate the size of the task ahead.
