Hoping for Lazaro to start. Barella as well. Also Sensi to get some minutes in his legs, he is really rusty after that long injury layoff.

Sanches should also start to prove his worth.

Cagliari defense is pretty bad but I’m not sure if it’ll be that easy to break them down if we don’t start with Lukaku and Lautaro (which I hope we won’t). It’s their midfield and attack we need to be wary of, especially Nainggolan.

Exactly. Radja has a much more free reign in Cagliari, he isn't playing the way we knew him at Inter under Spalletti. He doesn't drop as deep nor track back often. But he will be motivated to score so we need to watch those 25 meter long shots. I don't expect him to be a nuisance defensively today.

Just saw some Inter page on Instagram that says Conte will play:

Padelli
Skriniar Ranocchia Bastoni
Lazaro Barella Valero Vecino Dimarco
Esposito Sanchez​

I can’t find a source, but they’re normally very accurate with their predicted lineups. I think they use GdS/CdS/SKY predictions. Cagliari is expected to rotate heavily too - apparently no Nainggolan, Simeone, Pellegrini, Nandez, Cigarini, Rog, Klavan or Olsen.

Would be fantastic if the info is true. Probably won’t be vintage football but I’m excited to see our backups, and thankfully they’ll have a favorable matchup against a Cagliari B team.

I still feel both teams will play more regulars though. I think Lukaku and Biraghi will start.

They did have a bit of a break before the Napoli game and Atalanta was a whole week after. Especially Lautaro, who was suspended and didn't play for 3 weeks after Florence.

Why the fuck are Lukaku and Brozovic playing in this one? And Handanovic?!?!
Lukaku makes some sense as you either have to use him or Lautaro, but still.

Change your formation ffs. You will be whining in 3 weeks.

I like it but Brozo needs a rest bring on gags in the 2nd half if we are leading by 2 or more, and Esposito for Lukaku
