Big Changes Expected To Inter Milan Starting XI Vs Napoli From Champions League Win Vs Arsenal

There will be big changes to the Inter Milan starting eleven against Napoli tomorrow from the team that beat Arsenal.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that Francesco Acerbi will start, while Denzel Dumfries will keep his place.

Inter take on Napoli tomorrow evening in Serie A.

And it will be a hugely significant match. At the moment, the Nerazzurri are second in the Serie A table, and the Partenopei are first.

Just one point separates the two teams at the moment.

Therefore, Sunday’s match presents Inter with the opportunity to overtake Napoli at the top of the table. Clearly, there is a real chance that it could be a pivotal moment in the title race.

Inter just played another huge match this week. On Wednesday, they took on Arsenal in the Champions League, winning 1-0.

Inzaghi rotated his squad a fair bit for that match. He kept a number of players fresh for Sunday’s match.

Acerbi To Start For Inter Vs Napoli After Not Featuring Vs Napoli

And there is no doubt that some of the big names will return to the lineup against Napoli.

Wingback Federico Dimarco, midfielder Nicolo Barella, and striker Marcus Thuram will all start this weekend, having come off the bench against Arsenal.

Meanwhile, Alessandro Bastoni will regain his starting place on the left of the back three.

The 25-year-old did not play a minute against Arsenal on Wednesday.

Another player who did not feature either from the start or from the bench yesterday was Acerbi.

The Italian international was in the squad. He has recovered from a thigh strain that he picked up in a Serie A match against Roma last month.

But Acerbi is fully ready to start tomorrow.

The Italian international will replace fellow former Lazio defender Stefan de Vrij in the eleven.

On the other hand, Denzel Dumfries will keep his place in the lineup, reports the Gazzetta.
