Inter Milan faces few injury concerns with Carlos Augusto sidelined until mid-November and Kristjan Asllani out due to a knee issue.
Coach Simone Inzaghi urged his team to be more clinical in front of the goal after Inter’s wasteful show during the weekend clash against Venezia. Lautaro Martinez scored the solitary goal of the match – his first at home in the Serie A – to guide them to victory. He’s likely to lead the attack against Arsenal as well.
Inter Milan predicted XI (3-5-2, right to left): Sommer (GK) — Pavard, De Vrij, Bastoni — Dumfries, Barella, Mkhitaryan, Calhanoglu, Dimarco — Taremi, Martinez
Injured: Augusto, Asllani
Suspended: None
Arsenal is expected to maintain the same starting XI that faced defeat against Newcastle United.
Takehiro Tomiyasu remains a long-term absentee and will be out until after the international break. The Gunners will also miss Riccardo Calafiori, who is sidelined with a knee injury, and Kieran Tierney, who is dealing with a hamstring issue.
Captain Martin Ødegaard remains unavailable due to an ankle injury.
Arsenal predicted XI (4-4-2, right to left): Raya (GK) — Partey, Saliba, Magalhaes, Timber — Saka, Rice, Merino, Martinelli — Havertz, Trossard.
Injured: Ødegaard, Calafiori, Tierney
Suspended: None
Arsenal is currently in a dry spell, winning just two games in their last five fixtures in all competitions. However, they are yet to lose a game in the European competition this season. The Gunners’ defense, led by William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães, won’t be easy for Inter to break. We predict a 1-1 draw.
