Inter take on Fiorentina in Serie A this evening.

It will be the first of two league meetings with La Viola in the space of less than a week.

That match had to be abandoned temporarily after a medical emergency for Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove.

Because of the circumstances of this makeup match, there will be a couple regulatory quirks.

Most significantly, the match will not actually go for a full ninety minutes plus stoppage time.

Rather, the two teams will kick off from the point in which they abandoned the fixture in December. That will mean that they start the match with seventeen minutes on the clock.

Then, reports the Gazzetta, there is also an interesting quirk regarding the two teams’ squad lists.

All players registered with Fiorentina and Inter Milan at time game started are available to Inter coach Simone Inzaghi and his Fiorentina counterpart Raffaele Palladino.

That can be either from the start, or as substitutes.

And that can include players who were absent from the December match due to injury. For Inter, that means that Benjamin Pavard, Francesco Acerbi, and Carlos Augusto are available.

But on the other hand, January signings cannot play in the fixture.

For Inter, that means there will be no Nicola Zalewski. And Fiorentina, meanwhile, will be without all of Nicolo Fagioli, Nicolo Zaniolo, Pablo Maria, Cher Ndour, and Michael Folorunsho.

Zalewski and those Viola signings will be available wen the two teams meet at the San Siro on Monday, however.
