I've always had a soft spot for Sassuolo, for some reason. They play entertaining football, but with no defence. Should be interesting, 5-6 Inter.
I am expecting a bit of rotation from Conte on this match as we face Gladbach on Tuesday.
Handanovic
Skriniar/D'Ambro - De Vrij - Bastoni
Hakimi/Darmian - Vidal - Brozovic - Young
Barella
Alexis - Lukaku
I don't think he will start Gagliardini. Even Conte isn't so masochist to start the grinta trio for third consecutive match after the two previous disasters. I believe he will play it conservatively on the wings in order to contain Berardi and Boga.

I don't think he will play Brozovic. He hasn't trained for some time now.
It will be Gags-Vidal-Barella again.

I thought football in Italy had changed, but it seems that a zebra never changes its stripes.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Conte worked on a back 4 in training yesterday.

Yeah I mentioned this in another thread that it's likely. It feels like he's going to try his 4-2-4 eventually even if there's no right winger. Hakimi could serve as such since he has both Darmian and D'Ambrosio to cover the right back slot.
But I'll be surprised if he's going to use that when he has Vidal, Barella and Gagliardini available.

Please no more Gagliardinho, we are Inter fans but that is too much suffering even for us.![]()
I don't think Sensi will be starting many games so there's that.
It will be truly ironic if Conte does this as he'll have Eriksen, Nainggolan, Sensi, Gagliardini and one of Brozovic/Vidal/Barella on the bench, when in fact a manager of this team should be prioritizing to use at least 4 of these guys on the starting lineup when considering the depth in this position and also looking around for the lack of depth in other spots.
Conte is a fan of the two man midfield. He also used that at Chelsea and it was his standard formation with Bari iirc.

This is our watershed moment. Inter 0 - 2 Real Madrid will be what Arsenal 3 - 0 Chelsea was in 2016: a turning point. The introduction of a new formation and the beginning of a winning streak which will see us storm the league.
Jokes aside, I imagine it somehow being worse than the usual trash.
**I move away from the mic to breathe in
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Considering our squad composition, the most probable formation is 4-4-2 diamond:
Lukaku - Lautaro
Barella
Vidal - Gagliardini
Brozovic
Young - De Vrij - Skrniar - Hakimi

Few notes:
1. We are missing an obvious Danish playmaker on the formation, but we know Conte will choose a workhorse rather than an artist.
2. Young could be replaced with Bastoni if we are on defensive mode.

Feeling up the senses like a night in Giuseppe Meazza
a 4-man line would most likely be to counter our defensive deficiencies. it might as well be the solution we are looking for.

According to Sky, Conte has no intention to change formation. Darmian and Perisic are the favorites to start over Hakimi and Young. Alexis could also get a chance.
