Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi has decided to start Mehdi Taremi in attack against AC Milan. This evening’s Supercoppa Italiana final clash kicks off at 20.00 CET.
Inter take on city rivals AC Milan in the Supercoppa Italiana final this evening.
Beyond being a derby clash, this evening’s match is Inter’s first opportunity to pick up silverware this season.
Therefore, it is little surprise to see Nerazzurri coach Simone Inzaghi name a strong starting eleven.
In fact, there is just one change to the team that beat Atalanta in the semifinal.
Moreover, that is one that Inzaghi has been forced to make.
Marcus Thuram is on the bench for this evening’s match – however, he is unable to start.
That is because the Frenchman is just recovering from a minor thigh injury that he picked up against Atalanta.
Therefore, Inzaghi has decided to start Mehdi Taremi in attack – the Iranian partners Inter captain Lautaro Martinez.
Then in goal it is Yann Sommer, continuing his run of starting every match for Inter this season.
In defense, meanwhile, Inzaghi has gone with the trio of Alessandro Bastoni, Stefan de Vrij, and Yann Bisseck.
Then, in midfield it is the trio of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Hakan Calhanoglu, and Nicolo Barella.
Lastly, at wingback, Federico Dimarco starts on the left, and Denzel Dumfries on the right.
Meanwhile, the likes of Francesco Acerbi and Benjamin Pavard are still absent with injuries.
