Inter will look to Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram in a home Serie A match against Nico Paz’s Como.

It kicks off at 18:00 CET (17:00 GMT) at the Stadio Meazza in Milan.

The Nerazzurri must cope without Denzel Dumfries, Raffaele Di Gennaro and Matteo Darmian, while Como have travelled to Milan without Alberto Dossena, Sergi Roberto and Edoardo Goldaniga.

Inter return to the pitch just three days after their last match, in which they beat Serie B side Venezia 5-1 in the Coppa Italia Round of 16.

As reported by several Italian media, including Sky Sport, Lautaro Martinez will return to the starting XI alongside Nicolò Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Federico Dimarco, Alessandro Bastoni and Manuel Akanji, who rested in the previous match.

Assane Diao has returned from an injury for Como, but Jesús Rodríguez remains favourite to start on the left wing. Likewise, Alvaro Morata and Anastasios Douvikas compete for a starting spot in the centre-forward position.
