Romelu Lukaku - Lays egg in Juventus game Lukaku recorded one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate), and one chance created in Sunday's 0-1 loss to Juventus.

Impact Lukaku got the nod over Edin Dzeko in this one, but he didn't do much, as Inter struggled to generate much offense overall. He has hit the net once and posted eight shots (two on target), two chances created, and seven crosses (zero accurate) in the last five fixtures. Inter will host Fiorentina on April 1.

He has tallied 11 shots (three on target), 13 key passes, and 37 crosses (14 accurate) in the last five games. Inter will host Fiorentina on April 1.

Nicolo Barella - Productive against Juventus Barella won four duels and registered four shots (two on goal), seven crosses (two accurate), and four chances created in Sunday's 0-1 defeat versus Juventus.

Impact Barella had his best performance in a while and was pulled early primarily because he had already received a yellow card. Despite his lack of points, he appears to be getting back on track after a lull. He has provided one assist and tallied eight shots (three on target), 11 key passes, and 15 crosses (five accurate) in the last five matches. Inter will host Fiorentina on April 1.

Danilo D`Ambrosio - Sees red in Juventus bout D'Ambrosio generated three crosses (one accurate), and one chance created and was sent off after the game in Sunday's 0-1 defeat against Juventus.

Impact D'Ambrosio replaced Federico Dimarco in the second half and was passable, but he was expelled for a late altercation with Leandro Paredes. If Dimarco or Robin Gosens (calf) don't recover, Raoul Bellanova is the next man up on the flank.

MARCH 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Andre Onana - Beaten once by Juventus Onana had two saves, two clearances, and one punch, and gave up one goal in Sunday's 0-1 loss versus Juventus.

Impact Onana was left flat-footed by Filip Kostic's finish and didn't seem positioned correctly, although his defense didn't help him either on such occasion. He has kept three clean sheets in his last five appearances, allowing two goals, and making 17 saves. Inter will host Fiorentina on April 1.

Joaquin Correa - DNP against Porto Correa didn't feature in Tuesday's 0-0 draw with Porto.

Impact Correa was good to go for the first time in six weeks, but Inter had mostly a defensive game plan and leaned on their other strikers. He'll have to show well when given the opportunity to change the pecking order. He has recorded three goals, three assists, 13 shots (seven on target), and eight chances created in 22 appearances (seven starts).

Milan Skriniar - Plays ten minutes versus Porto Skriniar had one clearance and one pass in ten minutes in Tuesday's 0-0 draw with Porto.

Impact Skriniar was available after missing three matches with a muscular problem, but he didn't get many minutes. Even though Inter will be thin in the back versus Juventus since Alessandro Bastoni is out with an injury, there's a chance he won't start as he's not 100 percent yet. Mattia Darmian would continue to play in the back if that was the case.

Lautaro Martinez - Takes two shots in UCL draw Martinez generated two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Tuesday's 0-0 draw against FC Porto.

Impact Martinez was fairly quiet here as Inter were mostly on the back foot protecting their fragile lead.

The forward has been extremely active in Serie A with two goals on 18 shots over his past four matches on domestic level alone.
