Inter Milan face Fiorentina for the second time in a week in a huge game for the club’s Serie A title challenge.
Simone Inzaghi’s side were beaten 3-0 in Florence on Thursday night, in a fixture rearranged from December.
The initial clash was halted when Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed due to cardiac arrest. Bove is recovering but can no longer player in Serie A after the implementation of a pacemaker.
In a clash restarted in the 17th minute, Moise Kean scored twice as Fiorentina stunned the champions last week and La Viola head to the San Siro with confidence.
However, Inter know a win will take them within one point of leaders Napoli, who drew with Udinese at the weekend.
Denzel Dumfries will return for Inter after missing last week’s defeat through suspension. Nicola Zalewski is also available for selection following his loan move from Roma. The wing-back was not permitted to play last week, given he was not an Inter player when the initial fixture took place.
Inter otherwise have a near clean bill of health. Goalkeeper Raffaele Di Gennaro remains sidelined with a finger injury.
Inter Milan predicted XI: Sommer; Pavard, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Thuram.
Inter host Fiorentina in Serie A on Monday 10th February 2025. Kick-off at the San Siro is 19:45 GMT.
