Latest team news for Inter Milan vs AS Roma
Inter will continue to rotate their squad due to the packed schedule, with the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona coming up. Therefore, after the heavy defeat in the Derby della Madonnina, Simone Inzaghi may make some changes.
Although Denzel Dumfries and Piotr Zielinski have returned to training, Inter will be without Alessandro Bastoni and Henrikh Mkhitaryan due to suspensions, while Marcus Thuram's availability remains uncertain.
In Thuram's absence, Joaquin Correa, Marko Arnautovic, and Mehdi Taremi are all ready to partner Lautaro Martinez in attack. If Dumfries is not fit enough, Nicola Zalewski – currently on loan from Roma – could replace Matteo Darmian on the wing.
Additionally, Yann Sommer is expected to return to the starting lineup in place of Josep Martinez, while Hakan Calhanoglu will replace Kristjan Asllani in central midfield.
On Roma's side, although Claudio Ranieri is known for frequently rotating the squad, they will most likely field a stable team, with the biggest question being who will lead the attack.
Eldor Shomurodov, who scored the winning goal against Verona last week, will be competing for a starting spot with star striker Artem Dovbyk.
Roma are only missing two key players, Paulo Dybala and Danish defender Victor Nersson, while captain Lorenzo Pellegrini has fully recovered from his shoulder injury.
Latest predicted lineups for Inter Milan vs AS Roma

Latest football match prediction: Inter Milan vs AS Roma
Since their victory over Bayern Munich to secure a place in the Champions League semi-finals against Barcelona, Inter Milan – showing clear signs of fatigue – have seen their hopes of winning a domestic double shattered in a bitter fashion.
Just days after conceding a last-minute goal against Bologna in Serie A, the Nerazzurri failed to beat their arch-rivals Milan for the fifth time this season, losing 0-3 on Wednesday and being eliminated from the Coppa Italia.
Losing 1-4 over two legs in the semi-finals, the Nerazzurri – who also lost to the Rossoneri in the Super Cup match in January – suffered their first consecutive defeats of the season.
It's been two years since they last suffered a losing streak in Serie A, but with their form and fitness under serious question, Simone Inzaghi's aging squad risks repeating that this weekend.
With their 13-match unbeaten run now over, and having conceded more goals than usual, Inter are now level on points with Napoli (71 points) in the fierce title race, and there is no room for mistakes.
Therefore, Nerazzurri fans will likely be hoping for a historical precedent when hosting Roma: they have won three of their last four home games against the Giallorossi.
In fact, Inter are on the verge of winning five consecutive matches against Roma in Serie A for the third time in history, the last time they achieved this was in 1978.
Meanwhile, Roma have won only one of their last 15 league encounters with Inter, losing seven of their last eight matches – including a defeat in the first leg back in October.
However, this time they travel to Milan in high form, boasting a 17-match unbeaten streak in Serie A, stretching back to last December.
Having won 12 matches during that period, the Giallorossi have the opportunity to extend their unbeaten streak to 18 – something they haven't achieved since their 24-match unbeaten run from November 2009 to April 2010, under... Claudio Ranieri – their current manager.
Since beginning his third and final stint at his boyhood club, Ranieri – who had a brief but unsuccessful stint at Inter – has lifted Roma out of mid-table and back into the race for European qualification.
Following their draw in the Derby della Capitale and their victory against Hellas Verona last week, Roma are now just three points behind the top four.
In fact, the Giallorossi have already earned more points than both Inter and any other team in Serie A in 2025, so this Sunday they only have to worry about their head-to-head history.
