This is the shock of this 12th day of Serie A. Inter and AC Milan will cross swords in their common San Siro venue (a meeting to follow live with commentary on French Football Weekly from 8:45 p.m.). For the Nerazzurri, a victory would allow them to share the lead of the Italian championship with AS Roma. While for the Rossoneri, they would return to Naples.
Christian Chivu opted for a 3-5-2. Marcus Thuram regains his starting place after an injury sustained in early October. He is obviously associated with Lautaro Martinez. Dumfries not being operational, it is the former Monza Carlos Augusto who will be left piston. For central defense, it’s familiar with Akanjo, Acerbi and Bastoni. Sucic is still present in midfield while waiting for Mkhitaryan to return to form. Max Allegri used the same system as his interist counterpart. For the first of the season, Leao and Pulisic will be lined up from the start. Bartesaghi was preferred to Estupinan on the left side. Adrien Rabiot starts alongside Modric in midfield.
The official compositions:
Inter: Sommer – Akanji, Acerbi, Bastoni – Carlos Augusto, Barella, Calhanoglu, Sucic, Dimarco – Thuram, Lautaro
AC Milan: Maignan – Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic – Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Rabiot, Bartesaghi – Leao, Pulisic.
