INT vs SAS Dream11 Match Preview, Team News, Lineups
Having lost season’s first Derby d’Italia 1-2 at home against Juventus before the international break, Inter Milan know they can’t allow the defending champions to create a gap at the top of the table.
Antonio Conte’s men could find themselves further behind the pace by the time they kick the ball at Mapei Stadium if Juve win their home game against Bologna.
With no disrespect to Sassuolo, these are the kind of games Inter must win to sustain a title challenge with Juventus. While Atalanta’s convincing 3-0 win over Lazio means, Inter are 3rd on the table.
The hosts though will hope to end a two-game skid in front of the fans and pull themselves clear away from the dreaded relegation zone.

Sassuolo Team News:
Brazilian left-back Rogerio, and Italian goalkeeper Gianluca Pegolo are both listed as out for Sassuolo.
In addition, on-loan Napoli defender Vlad Chiriches is a doubt for the match having returned from international duty with Romania with an injury.
Expect changes from the hosts:
Sassuolo’s last league game before the international break was postponed following the death of their resident Giorgio Squinzi. With three weeks between their last game and this match, manager Roberto De Zerbi is expected to rin in a few changes.
One may come at the back if Chiriches fails to recover from the injury. If that remains the case, expect Gian Marco Ferrari and Marlon Santos to partner at the back. While wing-backs Toliso and Pelijan are fit and should reprise their roles in the playing 11.
Mehdi Bourabia and Hamed Junior Traore battle for a place in the midfield, while Jeremie Boga looks to start ahead of Gregoire Defre.
Sassuolo Probable XI:
Consigli (GK), Peluso, Ferrari, Santos, Toljan, Duncan, Obiang, Traore, Berardi, Defrel / Boga, Caputo

Danilo D’Ambrosio will miss the game through injury with Antonio Candreva coming into the playing 11 to replace him.
Diego Godin should get a rest here with Alessandro Bastoni replacing the former Atletico Madrid star at the back.
Roberto Gagliardini is expected to come in for Stefano Sensi in midfield.
