Revealed – Simone Inzaghi To Heavily Starting XI Rotation In Inter Milan Vs Arsenal Champions League Clash

Mehdi Taremi will likely partner up with Lautaro Martinez in attack when Inter Milan and Arsenal trade tackles in the UEFA Champions League tomorrow night.

According to FCInterNews, the Iran international has overtaken Marcus Thuram in the pecking order for the starting XI.

Despite frequently starting Serie A matches on the bench, Taremi has been Simone Inzaghi’s first choice in the UEFA Champions League.

Indeed, he has started all three European fixtures this season.

His only goal for Inter came in this competition as he found the net in a 4-0 thrashing of Red Star Belgrade at Giuseppe Meazza.

With the Nerazzurri gearing up for a mouth-watering clash against Arsenal, Taremi is ready to return to the starting line-up.

However, it may not be the only formation tweak.

Known for constant squad rotations, Inzaghi prepares more changes.

Thuram’s profligacy in a 1-0 Serie A win against Venezia may have been crucial for Inzaghi’s decision to reinstate Taremi.

Indeed, the Frenchman wasted three glorious scoring chances on Sunday.

His wastefulness nearly returned to bite Inter down the final stretch.

Furthermore, Nicolo Barella’s performance against Eusebio Di Francesco’s side was far from ideal.

Therefore, the diminutive midfielder could move to the bench on Wednesday.

Davide Frattesi could take his place.

After recovering from a minor thigh injury, Hakan Calhanoglu will reclaim his spot in the midfield.

His recovery comes as a decisive boost for Inter.

But it also affects Inzaghi’s choices.

With Calhanoglu back, the Nerazzurri boss can make more alterations in the engine room.

Piotr Zielinski will likely displace Henrikh Mkhitaryan, as the Armenian veteran desperately needs rest.

At the back, Stefan de Vrij should start at the expense of Francesco Acerbi.

Despite overcoming his hamstring problem, the 36-year-old isn’t fully fit yet.

Probable starting XI (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, de Vrij, Bisseck; Dumfries, Calanoglu, Frattesi, Zielinski, Darmian; Lautaro, Taremi.
