A gala evening at the Unipol Domus, with a highly anticipated big match: Cagliari vs. Inter. At 8:45 PM, the Rossoblù enter the match with seven points and seventh place, one point ahead of the Nerazzurri, and are looking to continue the positive trend that began with the victory over Parma and enhanced by victories against Lecce and Frosinone in the Coppa Italia. Fabio Pisacane rotated his squad on Tuesday , but today all the big names return, starting with the attacking duo of Sebastiano Esposito (who faces his brother Francesco Pio, who is expected to be benched) and Andrea Belotti (who scored a brace against Lecce).
With Gabriele Zappa injured and, like Zito Luvumbo, missing out on the squad, the formation and players need to be chosen. A 3-5-2 formation is possible, with Zé Pedro joining the defense and Alessandro Deiola in midfield. In that case, Michel Adopo would be left out (though he would play regularly in midfield if Deiola were to play as a third center back). On the flanks, Marco Palestra, who has made a notable impact, and Adam Obert, who returns to the squad (along with Michael Folorunsho and Yerry Mina) after missing the cup due to workload management , are available. Lautaro Martínez, who scored 11 goals in as many games against Cagliari, returns to the starting lineup for Inter.
Here are the probable lineups for Cagliari vs. Inter: kick-off is at 8:45 PM, with Marco Piccinini of the Forlì section as the referee . The match will be followed live on unionesarda.it, with Carlo Alberto Melis providing pre- and post-match coverage on Radiolina, and live commentary by Lele Casini .
Cagliari (3-5-2): Caprile; Zé Pedro, Mina, Luperto; Palestra, Folorunsho, Prati, Deiola, Obert; S. Esposito, Belotti. Coach: Pisacane.
Inter (3-5-2): Sommer; Akanji, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Çalhanoğlu, Sučić, Dimarco; M. Thuram, Lautaro Martínez. Coach: Chivu.
