Inter Milan is set to host AS Roma at San Siro in a highly anticipated Serie A encounter tonight. The match, kicking off at 20:45 CET, holds significant importance for both the Nerazzurri and the Giallorossi.
The fixture marks the return of key players Lautaro Martinez and Matias Soulé, who are expected to feature after more than a month out of action, providing a significant boost to their respective teams.
Current Serie A leaders, Inter, hold a six-point advantage over second-placed Milan, but their recent form has seen them fail to secure a win in their last three league matches. Roma, conversely, is in pursuit of a Champions League qualification spot, trailing fourth-placed Como by three points, and has managed only two victories in their previous five outings.
Team news indicates Inter will be without the injured Yann Bisseck and the suspended Carlos Augusto. Roma faces a more extensive list of absentees for their trip to Milan, including Evan Ferguson, Manu Koné, Paulo Dybala, Artem Dovbyk, and Wesley.
As per reports from Sky Sport and other Italian media, the Argentina stars Lautaro Martinez and Matias Soulé are anticipated to make their first appearance in over a month tonight. Roma’s lineup is expected to feature Italian internationals Bryan Cristante, Lorenzo Pellegrini, and Gianluca Mancini. For Inter, key figures such as Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni, Nicolò Barella, and Federico Dimarco will be crucial.
In Roma’s central midfield, Nicolò Pisilli is contending with Neil El Aynaoui for a starting position. Meanwhile, either Konstantinos Tsimikas or Devyne Rensch is vying for the left midfield role for the Giallorossi.
