Inter's French striker Marcus Thuram's recovery from injury and return to the starting lineup has given the team an added advantage ahead of the Milan derby.
Idman.Biz reports that, according to Corriere della Sera, the 28-year-old striker will be in the starting lineup for this match. Thuram has not appeared in the starting lineup for almost two months.
Thuram's return allows head coach Cristian Chivu to once again use the "Thu-La" - Thuram and Lautaro Martinez attacking duo. Argentine national team striker Lautaro Martinez will be his team's captain in the derby.
On the other hand, Ange-Yoan Bonny and Francesco Pio Esposito, who started the season successfully, will remain in reserve. Bonny has already scored four goals in the championship, and only Hakan Çalhanoğlu has scored more goals than him at Inter. Esposito, on the other hand, has attracted attention by scoring two goals in the World Cup qualifying round for the Italian national team.
For this reason, Chivu also has a strong attacking potential on the reserve bench and has the opportunity to use his young players depending on the course of the match.
