Inter coach Simone Inzaghi will have a decision to make in attack this evening against Salernitana, as he knows he must get the balance right to address what has become a truly miserable run in attack.

This is highlighted in today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNewss, who report that Lautaro Martinez will likely start alongside Romelu Lukaku as the Nerazzurri have now gone 487 minutes without a goal from open play.

Two goals from the penalty spot, one against Spezia and one against Juventus, both scored by Romelu Lukaku, are all Inter have to show for their attacking efforts in their five most recent matches.

Having beaten Lecce 2-0 at the start of last month, the Nerazzurri have now gone more than a month without finding the back of the net from open play.

A big part of the problem has been the woeful form of striker Martinez, whose strong run of post-World Cup form came to a screeching halt right around the time of a costly first-half penalty miss against Spezia.

The 25-year-old has put in anonymous performances against the likes of Porto and Fiorentina as he has extended his goal drought, and was described as “dreadful” and the worst player on the pitch in Inter’s 1-1 draw with Juventus in the Coppa Italia earlier this week.

There is little doubt that fatigue in the Argentine’s legs have been a factor, and he has been described as “spent.”

Accordingly, it has not been certain whether Martinez would start against Salernitana this evening at the Stadio Arechi.

Yesterday it was reported that the 25-year-old would in all likelihood be benched for this evening’s match, particularly given how much he appears to need a rest with so many key matches still to come.

According to the Corriere, however, Martinez is still favourite to start alongside Lukaku this evening, although Correa is very much in the running.
