Como Vs Inter Milan – Official Starting Lineups As Pio Esposito Fills In For Injured Lautaro Inter Milan head coach Cristian Chivu has named his side for Sunday’s must-win Serie A trip to Como, with Francesco Pio Esposito and Marcus Thuram leading the attack without Lautaro Martinez and Francesco Acerbi once again filling in at centre-back in the absence of the injured Yann Bisseck as the Nerazzurri look to consolidate their lead at the top of the table. Milan’s shock defeat to Udinese at San Siro has left Napoli as Inter’s only credible title rival. Therefore, three points at the Sinigaglia tonight would be a significant step toward the Scudetto.

However, it will not be easy, against a strong Como side on an unbeaten run and aiming for a top-four finish. Como Vs Inter Milan – Pio Esposito & Thuram Lead The Line With Lautaro Out Again Lautaro Martinez returned from injury just one week ago, scoring twice in the 5-2 demolition of Roma, only to suffer a fresh setback. Therefore, Pio Esposito steps back in alongside Thuram.

Indeed, a partnership that has delivered in the captain’s absence on multiple occasions this season. Carlos Augusto returns from suspension and takes a place on the bench, giving Chivu an important option to call upon from the dugout. Como Vs Inter Milan – Acerbi Confirmed Again As Bisseck Absence Continues Acerbi keeps his starting berth at the heart of the back three, flanked once more by Akanji and Bastoni.

The midfield is entirely unchanged from the Roma performance. With Dumfries and Dimarco as wing-backs either side of Barella, Calhanoglu and Zielinski. Como Vs Inter Milan – Official Starting Lineups COMO (4-2-3-1) : Butez; Van der Brempt, Kempf, Diego Carlos, Valle; Sergi Roberto, Perrone; Diao, Nico Paz, Baturina; Douvikas Bench : Tornqvist, Vigorito, Cavlina, Goldaniga, Vojvoda, Moreno, De Paoli, Caqueret, Kuhn, Rodriguez, Morata.
