Fresh from Coppa Italia success, Inter travel to face Cagliari with their defense of the Scudetto on the line.
The Nerazzurri could be facing up to a five-point deficit by the time of kick off in Sardinia, with league leaders Milan set to entertain Atalanta earlier in the day.
Any slip-ups from their neighbors could present Simone Inzaghi’s side with the chance to go top heading into the final game of the season, with Inter set to host Sampdoria.
Here’s how the Nerazzurri could line up.
