2026-2027 Champions League: Feyenoord vs. Inter—Probable Lineups

After their 3-1 loss in the derby, Inter is looking to bounce back and will have a prime opportunity on Tuesday at 9 p.m., when they face Feyenoord in their Champions League Matchday 4 clash. The hosts haven’t won in three straight games but are looking to turn things around.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst fired up his team during Monday’s press conference: “Inter has a lot of injured players but also a lot of quality and experience. We have to play our cards right and try to get a great result. We’ve struggled on the road, but we’ve already beaten Como at home—let’s hope we can do it again.”

Ernst will be in goal for the Dutch side, with Read, Watanabe, Marmol, and Javi Lopez in front of him. Zechiel, Vanhoutte, and Targhelline will play in midfield, while the attacking line will feature star player Hadj Moussa alongside Ferri and captain Valente.

Chivu’s Inter must bounce back after their loss to Milan: “I’m convinced we’ll put on a good show if we channel the frustration from Saturday’s loss into positive energy,” said Chivu. “We’re not thinking about the league right now; we’re focused on honoring Inter’s name on the European stage.”

Josep Martinez will be in goal, with Bisseck, Akanji, and Carlos Augusto in front of him to replace the suspended Bastoni. Spence is favored over Diouf, but Chivu has yet to make a final decision; Barella and Calhanoglu will play in midfield with Dimarco on the other side. Up front, Pio Esposito will return to the lineup: the young center forward will play alongside Marcus Thuram.
