ℹ️ Team News: Inter Milan

We are thinking that Nerazzurri could employ a 3-5-2 formation this time and select Yann Sommer, Yann Aurel Bisseck, Manuel Akanji, Carlos Augusto, Luis Henrique, Petar Sucic, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Federico Dimarco, Lautaro Martinez and F. Pio Esposito.

ℹ️ Team News: Lecce

We are inclined to think that Giallorossi could decide to play in a 4-3-3 lineup by sending out Wladimiro Falcone, Danilo Veiga, Kialonda Gaspar, Tiago Gabriel, Corrie Ndaba, Mohamed Kaba, Ylber Ramadani, Youssef Maleh, Santiago Pierotti, Nikola Stulic and Lameck Banda.

💡 Prediction

It’s pretty clear that Lecce will do well to put one past a Inter Milan outfit who will most probably boss this game in attack, midfield and defence.

We’re expecting a convincing 3-0 margin for Inter Milan after 90 minutes.
