Inter Milan, led by Marcus Thuram, will face Nico Paz’s Como at the iconic San Siro stadium for the second leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final clash. The match is scheduled to kick off at 21:00 CET (20:00 BST) this evening.
With the first leg concluding in a goalless draw back in March, tonight’s encounter is pivotal. The winner will secure a spot in the final, where they will face either Atalanta or Lazio.
Inter will be without the services of Lautaro Martinez and Alessandro Bastoni due to unavailability. Similarly, Como will be missing Sergi Roberto and Jayden Addai.
In goal for the Nerazzurri, Josep Martinez is anticipated to start for the second consecutive game. The defensive line is expected to feature Francesco Acerbi, Carlos Augusto, and Manuel Akanji.
Reports from Sky and Gazzetta suggest that Ange-Yoan Bonny is the preferred choice over Francesco Pio Esposito to partner Thuram in Inter’s attack.
Como is likely to adopt a three-man defense, with Jacobo Ramon, Diego Carlos, and Marc-Oliver Kempf forming the backline. Cesc Fabregas will be looking to Anastasios Douvikas and Nico Paz to lead the offensive charge.
