Inter head coach Simone Inzaghi is set to make rotations to his squad for their trip to Tuscany to face Empoli tomorrow, with Andrea Ranocchia set for his first start of the season.

This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, who report that the Nerazzurri boss will also hand a start to Federico Dimarco on the left.

Inzaghi will want to make full use of his squad during the busy period in the fixture schedule currently underway in order to avoid fatigue to his players.

To this end Ivan Perisic could drop out of the starting eleven after looking to have been fatigued when he came off against Juventus, with Dimarco taking his place, while Ranocchia is set to come in for Stefan de Vrij.

In attack, Joaquin Correa is back with the squad after missing the Bianconeri clash through a fitness problem, but he is expected to start on the bench.

The Corriere’s predicted starting eleven for the match is as follows:

INTER (3-5-2): Hadanovic; Skriniar, Ranocchia, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Dimarco; Dzeko, Lautaro.
