Two Key Midfielders Back For Torino Ahead Of Serie A Showdown Vs Inter Milan | OneFootball

Midfielders Samuele Ricci and Karol Linetty are back to fitness for Torino ahead of today’s Serie A match against Inter Milan.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews.

Torino host Inter Milan in Serie A this evening.

For the Granata, there is not necessarily much left to fight for. They have no chance of qualifying for European competition next season, but also no risk of relegation.

However, Torino will still certainly want to end the season positively. They will want to shore up a position towards the top of the Serie A midtable.

Inter, meanwhile, will hope to take three points to turn the pressure up on Napoli at the top of the table.

There are a couple of pieces of good news for Torino coach Paolo Vanoli.

The Granata have got a couple of key midfielders back from injury.

Firstly, midfielder Samuele Ricci is back after having had to pull out of the squad for last month’s Serie A clash with Napoli.

Then, former Sampdoria midfielder Karol Linetty has recovered from an ankle injury.

On the other hand, the Granata have a couple notable injuries on the flanks.

Both Borna Sosa and Marcus Holmgren Pedersen will be absent. As will former Inter winger Yann Karamoah.

According to the Gazzetta, therefore, Frenchman Ali Dembele will start on the right flank for Torino. Cristiano Biraghi, meanwhile, will start at left-back.
