Sampdoria vs Inter Probable line-ups: ​Lautaro is expected to partner Dzeko

Lautaro Martinez is expected to partner Edin Dzeko in Inter’s attack, while Francesco Caputo will make his Sampdoria debut.

The Serie A champions face Sampdoria at Marassi in the lunchtime match.

It kicks off at 11.30 UK time.

Both Roberto Gagliardini and Alexis Sanchez have returned to Inter’s squad list after recovering from injuries but are expected to start on the bench.

The same is true of new signing Denzel Dumfries as Matteo Darmian is likely to start on the right for the Nerazzurri.

Lautaro Martinez is available despite returning from international duty with Argentina on Friday evening.

Francesco ‘Ciccio’ Caputo will make his first appearance with Sampdoria after moving from Sassuolo on the deadline.

Bartosz Bereszyński is not fully fit but is expected to start at right winger for the Blucerchiati.

Roberto D’Aversa’s side has one point after the first two Serie A games, while Inter won their opening fixtures against Genoa and Hellas Verona.

Probable line-ups:

Sampdoria: Audero; Bereszynski, Yoshida, Colley, Augello; Candreva, Thorsby, Adrien Silva, Damsgaard; Caputo, Quagliarella.

Inter: Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Dimarco; Darmian, Barella, Brozovic, Calhanoglu, Perisic; Dzeko, Lautaro.
