Official - Starting lineups Inter Milan vs Genoa: Alexis Sanchez starts

Inter Milan

The manager of Inter Milan, Simone Inzaghi, has chosen to put Alexis Sanchez in the attacking position and Carlos Augusto in defense for their match against Genoa. The game will start at 8:45 PM Central European Time as part of the twenty-seventh matchday of the Serie A.

For tonight's game, the team that triumphed over Atalanta the previous week has undergone three alterations.

To begin, Alexis Sanchez is the one leading the attack. The veteran forward, who used to play for Arsenal and Manchester United and is now 35 years old, has returned to the starting lineup.

As a result, Marko Arnautovic will sit on the sidelines.

Starting in the goal position today is Yann Sommer.

After that, to protect the team, Stefan de Vrij will be playing as the central defender in a group of three defenders.

Nonetheless, there has been an alteration with the Dutch team. While Benjamin Pavard remains in the lineup, Alessandro Bastoni will not be able to play due to being suspended.

Therefore, Inzaghi has chosen to begin the game with the flexible Brazilian, Carlos Augusto, playing on the left side of the defense.

Moving on to the midfield, it appears that Inzaghi has decided to stick with the same squad that emerged victorious against Atalanta.

As a result, the starting lineup consists of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Kristjan Asllani, and Nicolo Barella. Notably, Hakan Calhanoglu is out due to injury.

Inzaghi has made some alterations to the team on the sides compared to their previous game against Atalanta.

Denzel Dumfries takes over from Matteo Darmian in the position on the right side.

Nevertheless, Federico Dimarco, who plays as a left-wingback, retains his position.

Finally, when it comes to attacking, Inzaghi has opted for Sanchez, who played as a starter in the game against Lecce.

Consequently, the Chilean athlete is a teammate to Lautaro Martinez, who takes on the role of the captain for Inter.

At the same time, there are a few noteworthy players sitting on the sideline. Attacker Marcus Thuram and defender Francesco Acerbi have both recovered from their injuries and rejoined the team.

Even though they are part of the team, they won't be beginning the match tonight.

Moreover, midfielder Davide Frattesi has earned a spot on the reserve despite sustaining an injury during the Atalanta game.

In today's match, Inter will be playing with a 3-5-2 formation. Yann Sommer will be the goalkeeper, while Benjamin Pavard, Stefan de Vrij, and Carlos Augusto will be the defenders. The midfielders will be Denzel Dumfries, Nicolo Barella, Kristjan Asllani, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and Federico Dimarco. Up front, the team will have Alexis Sanchez and Lautaro Martinez.

The coach for Inter is Simone Inzaghi. Unfortunately, Alessandro Bastoni will be suspended for one match, and Hakan Calhanoglu, Stefano Sensi, and Juan Cuadrado will be unavailable due to injuries.

The Genoa team will be playing with the formation 3-5-2 and their starting players will be Martinez as the goalkeeper, followed by De Winter, Bani, and Vasquez as defenders.
