Probable line-ups: Inter vs. Juventus
Inter’s Hakan Calhanoglu is not 100% fit, but should start against Juventus, while Federico Chiesa and Alvaro Morata are expected to start up front for the Old Lady.
Inter and Juventus meet at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in the big match of Matchday 9 in Serie A.
Simone Inzaghi can rely on full squad, although Calhanoglu is still not fully fit.
The former Milan start could start in the middle of the park anyway, along with Marcelo Brozovic and Nicolò Barella.
Matteo Darmian and Ivan Perisic will play at right-back and left-back respectively, with Lautaro Martinez and Edin Dzeko in attack.
Juventus striker Paulo Dybala has recovered from a muscle injury and is available for the game, although he’s not expected to start.
The Bianconeri must cope without the injured Moise Kean and Adrien Rabiot who has recovered from COVID, but is not eligible yet.
Either Matthijs de Ligt or Leonardo Bonucci will start in a three-man defence with Giorgio Chiellini and Danilo.
The Italian veteran is the favourite over the Dutchman.
