Borja Valero Favorite To Start Over Lautaro Martinez For Inter vs Barcelona

In today’s paper edition of the newspaper, Milano based Gazzetta dello Sport tries to interpret the words of Luciano Spalletti at the press conference yesterday.

The Gazzetta comes to the following conclusion reporting that: “Rafinha would have come in handy today, with Radja Nainggolan being absent Borja Valero, and not Lautaro Martinez, will take that place.”

And even if Marcelo Brozovic should be out of tonight’s game there will be no experimenting or a change of tactics to be expected as Spalletti will move forward with a 4-2-3-1: “The impression is that Brozovic will not miss a night that could be epic. In yesterday’s training he felt some pain, but that did not stop him, completing the practice with the group.”

Spalletti confirmed that “Miranda will play” and ensured everybody that “we have so many solutions, we are calm but hope not to have to change too much” therefore, De Vrij and Vrsaljko are out of tonight’s game.

Here is the probable starting formation according to Gazzetta dello Sport:

Inter (4-2-3-1): Handanovic; D’Ambrosio, Skriniar, Miranda, Asamoah; Vecino, Brozovic; Candreva, Borja Valero, Perisic; Icardi.
