Serie A 2024-2025: Inter v Udinese, the likely lineups
The Serie A starts again after the’last stop for national teams, with the league entering its final rush. Inter, currently leading the standings, will host Udinese on Sunday, March 30 at 6 p.m. at the San Siro in the 30th day of the championship. The match represents an important appointment for both teams, especially for the Nerazzurri, who intend to consolidate their leadership in Serie A.
Inter Milan, fresh from their Champions League victory and 2-0 win against Atalanta, hope to continue their march toward the title. On the other side, Kosta Runjaic’s Udinese comes to the challenge after a 1-0 loss to Verona, which interrupted a positive series of performances.
Inzaghi does not change his game plan, with the classic 3-5-2. Sommer will be in goal, while in defense, with Bastoni disqualified, Carlos Augusto seems to be ahead of Bisseck to flank Pavard and Acerbi. On the flanks, Darmian will take the place of the injured Dumfries, while Dimarco will act on the opposite lane. In midfield, the Calhanoglu-Mkhitaryan-Frattesi trio (ahead of Barella) will try to dominate the central area of the field. In attack, without Lautaro, Inzaghi seems inclined to launch Arnautovic alongside Thuram, with Correa ready to start from the bench.
Runjaic opts for a 3-5-1-1, deploying Okoye in goal, with Bijol and Solet in the center of defense, while Kristensen rounds out the department. On the lanes, Ehizibue will act on the right, with Kamara having a clear advantage over Zemura for the left-back role. In the middle of the field, Atta will flank Lovric and Karlström, with Payero looking to earn a starting spot. In attack, Lucca will be flanked by Ekkelenkamp, with Thauvin not called up for the match, while Iker Bravo and Davis will start from the bench.
