Champions League line-ups: Inter vs. Monaco | OneFootball

Inter are still missing Hakan Calhanoglu, but bring back Nicolò Barella with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram to host AS Monaco.

It kicks off at San Siro at 20.00 GMT.

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s Champions League games on the Liveblog.

Both these teams are already guaranteed a place in at least the play-offs, but Inter could tip their top eight status with a point here, and further consolidate their spot in the on-going draw with victory.

Hakan Calhanoglu and Francesco Acerbi are still out of action, while Tomas Palacios was loaned to Monza today.

Mehdi Taremi is not at 100 per cent, so Simone Inzaghi takes no chances by starting Thuram and Lautaro Martinez, even with the Derby della Madonnina against Milan coming up this weekend.

Denzel Dumfries and Barella are one yellow card away from suspension.

AS Monaco already have a spot in the play-offs too and have some slim hopes of reaching the top eight, so will be out here looking for victory.

Former Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria is passed fit to start, but ex-Torino man Wilfried Singo is out injured along with Folarin Balogun and George Ilenikhena.

New signing Mike Biereth is not on the Champions League list.

Monaco beat Barcelona Crvena Zvezda, Bologna and Aston Villa in the tournament so far this season.
