Inter Milan defender Yann Bisseck is reportedly the favorite to get the nod for the Serie A opener against Genoa tomorrow.
The new campaign begins on Saturday evening with a clash between the Grifone and the Nerazzurri at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium.
Simone Inzaghi will be looking to field a strong starting lineup as he knows the encounter won’t be easy at all. After all, Inter had to settle for a draw in this fixture last season.
According to Sport Mediaset via FcInterNews, Bisseck will likely be in the starting lineup tomorrow.
The German is coming off an impressive pre-season. He even managed to find the back of the net on a couple of occasions during the friendly tests.
Hence, the source tips the 23-year-old to lock himself a spot on the right of the three-man backline.
Benjamin Pavard was the ultimate starter in this position last season. However, the Frenchman returned relatively late from his summer vacation following France’s EURO 2024 campaign.
Hence, Inzaghi could prefer to field Bisseck at the back alongside his usual stalwarts Francesco Acerbi and Alessandro Bastoni.
In the middle of the park, Hakan Calhanoglu will operate in between his usual partners-in-crime Nicolo Barella and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Federico Dimarco will be unleashed on the left flank, while Matteo Darmian could earn a starting role at Denzel Dumfries’ expense.
Finally, club captain Lautaro Martinez will lead the line even if he remains short of his optimal physical condition.
The Argentine has only recently returned from his summer vacation, but has been working hard to make himself available for selection.
Marcus Thuram will link up with Lautaro upfront, while Mehdi Taremi could make his Serie A debut off the bench.
Inter Milan Probable XI (3-5-2): Sommer; Bisseck, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Lautaro Martinez
