It kicks off at 20:45 CET (19:45 BST) at the Stadio Sinigaglia in Como.

The match will be played just a few hours after Parma-Napoli, which kicks off at 15:00 CET.

Inter are at the top of the Serie A table with a seven-point lead over second-placed Napoli, but the Nerazzurri’s best scorer, Lautaro Martinez, has suffered a new muscle injury and will be forced to the sidelines for two weeks.

Multiple sources, including Gazzetta and Sky, claim that Italy international Esposito will replace El Toro in the Inter attack.

Yann Bisseck is also unavailable for Inter, while Como must cope without Jayden Addai.

According to Gazzetta, the home side will switch to a three-man defence with Jacobo Ramon returning to action after an injury.

Anastasios Douvikas will likely start on the bench with Nico Paz deployed as a false nine.
