"Inter entered the international break on a high, following a 2-1 win over Kairat in Europe and a subsequent victory against Lazio that halted the Biancocelesti's resurgence. Goals from Lautaro Martínez and Ange-Yoan Bonny propelled the Nerazzurri to the summit of Serie A, level on points with surprise contenders Roma, and kept the pressure on their title rivals. Cristian Chivu, a treble winner as a player, knows the race is far from over, but his team's recent form is encouraging."
"Inter could be without three players: Denzel Dumfries is battling an ankle issue and may join Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Matteo Darmian on the sidelines. With Mkhitaryan unavailable, Petar Sucic and Piotr Zielinski are competing for a midfield berth, while Carlos Augusto might deputise for Dumfries on the right flank. Up front, Chivu has plenty of options. Bonny and Marcus Thuram will vie with Francesco Pio Esposito to partner Lautaro Martínez, who needs one more goal to become only the third Inter player to score 10"
