Kristjan Asllani always in a group, even if the conditions of the Albanian midfielder, who has a bandaged knee, could recommend him to Simone Inzaghi to line up again as a starter Piotr Zielinski in the race that tomorrow will see theInter on stage in Empoli.
In the session held in Appiano Gentile this morning, they trained separately Francesco Acerbi, Hakan Calhanoglu And Carlos Augusto: the first two are aiming to return – at least in terms of availability, they are unlikely to start as starters, but time and Inzaghi himself will then decide on this – on Sunday at San Siro against Venezia. As for the Brazilian winger, the goal for his return is set for after the break.
Inter’s probable lineup
Calhanoglu and Acerbi are still out, as is Carlos Augusto who will return after the break. The conditions of Asllani, now regularly in the group but not yet at his best, need to be checked: Simone Inzaghi will entrust him with direction, on a pitch that he knows very well, only if he gives total guarantees. Otherwise it will be Zielinski’s turn again, who is destined to be the starter anyway because Mkhitaryan would also need to catch his breath. Barella favored over Frattesi to complete the midfield. In defense Bisseck should find space in place of one of Pavard and Bastoni, with De Vrij called to overtime as a central defender in front of Sommer (watch out for Martinez: possible debut between Empoli and Venezia). On the right, Darmian is a candidate to take over Dumfries: on the left again Dimarco, with the possibility of catching his breath in the process also by inserting Buchanan. Taremi and Arnautovic undermine the attacking pair of Thuram and Lautaro, who are still on pole.
