Inter’s defence continues to be hit by injuries, meaning Simone Inzaghi could be forced to field an unprecedented back-three as they host Como on Monday night.

It kicks off at 20:45 CET (19:45 GMT) at the San Siro in Milan.

With both Stefan De Vrij and Matteo Darmian likely to be ruled out with knee issues, the Nerazzurri coach is considering deploying Alessandro Bastoni at the centre of his defensive trio, with Yan Bisseck and Carlos Augusto at his sides.

Surprisingly, Nicolò Barella seems to have fully recovered from the slight injury picked up during the last game at Lazio and could be starting in midfield, as reported by Sky Sport Italia and Gazzetta dello Sport.

Denzel Dumfries and Federico Dimarco will return to the starting XI as wing-backs after being rested in their side’s Coppa Italia clash against Udinese mid-week, and so will Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez, who are set to pair up in attack.

Como returned to winning ways last weekend after more than two months, and coach Cesc Fabregas will rely on an offensive trio composed of Gabriel Strefezza, Nico Paz and Alieu Fadera to cause trouble for the Nerazzurri, with Andrea Belotti set to get another chance as centre forward at the expense of Patrick Cutrone.
