Inter's likely XI for Genoa clash - Conte to field Esposito with Lukaku
However, Antonio Conte will have to do without quite a few players. Brozovic, Asamoah, Sensi, Barella, Sanchez and Lautaro will all miss the game against Genoa on Sunday. Therefore, the manager will be forced to make some changes to the starting eleven.
As Calciomercato.com report this evening, the debut of the Esposito-Lukaku debut could take place. The former has already made a few appearances for the club this season, proving that he can do a good job for them even at the age of 17. However, it won't be the only change to the line-up.
Likely Inter XI (3-5-2): Handanovic; Godin, De Vrij, Bastoni; Lazaro, Candreva, Borja Valero, Vecino, Biraghi; Lukaku, Esposito.
In other words, it perhaps isn't the ideal line-up for Conte, who has requested reinforcements in January.
