Inter Milan ready for Sassuolo clash with strong form and key starters

Historic trends favor Inter Milan ahead of Sunday’s Serie A match

Inter Milan will be on the road tomorrow at 18:00 CET to face Sassuolo, and the team must remain focused. 

Historically, the Nerazzurri have 11 wins, two draws, and 10 losses against Sassuolo—a record that highlights the challenge posed by the Neroverdi. 

However, recent trends are in favor of Inter Milan, with six victories in the last nine league encounters. 

The last Serie A draw between the two sides occurred on 24 June 2020, a thrilling 3-3 at San Siro. Since then, every match has produced a decisive result.

Additionally, tomorrow’s match continues Inter Milan’s perfect record against newly promoted sides this season, with five wins in five games.

Chivu’s lineup: key starters return

Cristian Chivu will deploy many of the starters who were rested during the week. In goal, Yann Sommer returns, protected by Bisseck, Akanji, and Bastoni. 

On the flanks, Luis Henrique and Federico Dimarco will provide width and attacking support.

In midfield, Davide Frattesi is expected to start on the bench, with Piotr Zielinski orchestrating the play alongside Sucic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. 

Up front, the attacking duo of Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram (“ThuLa”) is set to return from the first whistle, restoring the offensive threat that Inter Milan have relied upon this season.

Focus on continuity and intensity

With this lineup, Chivu aims to maintain Inter Milan’s intensity and tactical balance, combining experienced players with emerging talents. 

The match against Sassuolo is not only crucial for points but also for keeping the momentum going in Serie A as the season approaches high-stakes fixtures in both domestic and European competitions.
