2026-2027 Serie A: Inter vs. Parma, Probable Lineups

Inter and Parma face off at 6 p.m. on Saturday in a match for the sixth round of the Serie A season. The reigning Italian champions, who remain undefeated, drew 2-2 with Roma before the international break and are tied with the Giallorossi at the top of the standings. The Crociati are led by new head coach Alberto Gilardino, who replaced Carlos Cuesta; they currently sit in 15th place with 4 points.

Chivu must also keep the Champions League in mind and will need to choose his lineup carefully, even though he’ll have to do without the injured Curtis Jones. Barella, Calhanoglu, and Mkhitaryan are expected to start in midfield, with Diouf and Dimarco on the wings. There could be some surprises up front: Thuram and Bonny might start from the first minute, as they’re fresher than Lautaro Martinez and Pio Esposito, who are returning from international duty.

Gilardino is starting Romero as the center forward, supported by Touré and Lontani. Keita and Sierro will play in midfield, with Britschgi and Valeri on the flanks. In front of Corvi are Delprato, Troilo, and Diego Carlos.
