Inter coach Antonio Conte risks losing three of his key players for the Derby della Madonnina in two weeks, with Nicolo Barella, Alessandro Bastoni and Marcelo Brozovic one booking away from suspension.

The Nerazzurri take on AC Milan in a top of the table clash on February 21, as they currently lead the Rossoneri by a single point ahead of Milan’s match against Crotone today.

However, as reported in today’s newspaper edition of Tuttosport, Inter face Lazio next Sunday before the Derby, and coach Antonio Conte risks losing the trio.

The trio have all received four yellow cards in Serie A this season, leaving them perilously close to a one-match ban for a fifth, and a booking against the Biancoceleste would rule them out of the match against Milan.

Midfield pair Barella and Brozovic have formed a strong partnership in the centre for the Nerazzurri, whilst 21-year-old defender Bastoni has made 18 league appearances this season.
