Official Starting Lineups – Inter Milan vs Arsenal: Mehdi Taremi, Piotr Zielinski & Davide Frattesi Start

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi has decided to start Mehdi Taremi, Piotr Zielinski and Davide Frattesi against Arsenal. This evening’s Champions League Match Day 4 kicks off at 21.00 CET.

Inter are looking to record their third consecutive victory in the Champions League this season.

The Nerazzurri played a goalless draw against Manchester City in the opening round of the Champions League.

However, they’ve since got the better of Red Star Belgrade and Young Boys. Moreover, Inter Milan just beat Venezia at the weekend in the Serie A.

Furthermore, with games every three days, the Nerazzurri coach Simone Inzaghi has decided to rotate the squad.

Therefore, Inter coach Simone Inzaghi has made quite a few changes to the team that defeated the Lariani in the Serie A this past Sunday.

Mehdi Taremi, Piotr Zielinski & Davide Frattesi Start For Inter Milan Vs Arsenal

Firstly, a subsiding injury crisis gives Inzaghi more options. Midfielder Hakan Calhanogu is back to the fold after overcoming a thigh problem.

Therefore, Italy international international Nicolo Barella moves to the bench.

Secondly, Piotr Zielinski and Davide Frattesi complete the midfield trio. Meanwhile, in defense there are further changes.

Then, Benjamin Pavard starts to the right of the back three. Also, Netherlands international Stefan de Vrij starts. This is because Francesco Acerbi is not fully fit yet.

Furthermore, Germany Under-21 international Yann Bisseck completes Inter’s back three. Therefore, Alessandro Bastoni has been benched.

In goal, meanwhile, Yann Sommer keeps his starting spot.

And on the flanks, there are further changes. Former Manchester United defender Matteo Darmian returns to the starting XI at the expense of Denzel Dumfries at right-wingback.

Federico Dimarco starts on the left, with Carlos Augusto still out injured.

Furthermore, in attack Inzaghi has given the nod to Mehdi Taremi and Lautaro Martinez.

Aside from Carlos Augusto being out, Inter have no more injury absentees – Canadian international Tajon Buchanan has recovered from a broken leg.

Kristjan Asllani is lacking match fitness and will start on the bench.

Finally, Joaquin Correa and Tomas Palacios are not part of the Inter Milan Champions League squad.
