MON
Inter manager Inzaghi to rest key players for Monza clash.
As Inter Milan seek to solidify their Serie A supremacy with an imposing record, relegation-threatened AC Monza look to defy expectations in a challenging clash at the Stadio Brianteo.
Monza
After a 2-2 draw with Fiorentina, Monza will return to Serie A action for a challenging fixture against Inter Milan. Monza had squandered a two-goal lead after Milan Đurić and Daniel Maldini scored in the first half.
However, a goal at the halftime whistle from Moise Kean and a dramatic stoppage-time strike from Robin Gosens meant they had to settle for a draw. With only 2 points from 3 games, AC Monza sits 15th in the Serie A table.
Their upcoming match against Inter makes it unlikely that Alessandro Nesta will secure his first win with the club. A win for the Biancorossi seems even more out of reach with their current 12-game winless streak in Serie A.
A defeat on Sunday would make it three consecutive losses against Inter Milan for Monza. They may line up in a 3—4—2—1 formation with Milan Đurić leading the attack, but they are missing key players, including Samuele Birindelli.
Inter
Table-topping Inter Milan are keen on cementing their place at the top of the table after picking Atalanta apart in a 4-0 win. This victory not only propelled them to the top but also made Inter the highest-scoring side in Serie A after eight goals. Their superior goal difference of +6 places them ahead of three other sides with the same 7 points.
Sunday’s game against Monza represents another opportunity to secure three points as Inter continues its title defense. The team, unbeaten at the U-Power Stadium in this competition, will be eager to maintain this record.
A win over their Lombardian neighbors would be an ideal boost, especially with an upcoming UEFA Champions League fixture against Manchester City and the Derby della Madonnina with AC Milan. However, Inter faces a challenge with only one win in four recent away games [1W, 2D, 1L] as they head to Stadio Brianteo.
Lautaro Martínez, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are expected to be rested when Inzaghi deploys the familiar 3—5—2 formation. Mehdi Taremi and Marcus Thuram could spearhead the attack, with Marko Arnautović also competing for a position upfront.
Meanwhile, Tajon Buchanan is the only confirmed absentee for the weekend’s fixture.
