Serie A | Fiorentina v Inter: Probable starting lineups

As Fiorentina prepare for their upcoming Conference League match, manager Raffaele Palladino is expected to make significant changes to his starting lineup. This rotation policy has been a hallmark of Palladino’s approach to European fixtures, with the coach often fielding an almost entirely different team compared to Serie A matches.

Key players like Moise Kean, Robin Gosens, and David de Gea are likely to return to the starting XI. Kean, in particular, is on the verge of a personal milestone, needing just one more goal to reach double figures in a league campaign for only the second time in his career.

There’s positive news on the injury front for Fiorentina. Milan-loaned midfielder Yacine Adli could make a comeback after recovering from a minor injury that sidelined him recently. Additionally, Icelandic striker Albert Gudmundsson might return to action following a multi-week absence. However, Amir Richardson remains unavailable for selection.

Meanwhile, Inter Milan, Fiorentina’s domestic rivals, are also dealing with their own team news. Their French forward Marcus Thuram has been in exceptional form this season, having already scored multiple goals on four occasions. Thuram could potentially replace Mehdi Taremi in the lineup, reuniting with Lautaro Martinez, who has an impressive record of seven goals in his last five appearances against Fiorentina.

Inter’s injury list is relatively short, with only Benjamin Pavard and backup goalkeeper Raffaele Di Gennaro confirmed as unavailable. Italian internationals Francesco Acerbi and Davide Frattesi are hopeful of being declared fit for the upcoming fixture.

Fiorentina (4-3-2-1): De Gea; Dodo, Comuzzo, Ranieri, Gosens; Adli, Cataldi, Bove; Colpani, Gudmundsson; Kean

Inter Milan (3-5-2): Sommer; Bisseck, De Vrij, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Martinez
