With a two-goal lead in their back pocket, Inter will look to cement their place in the Champions League final when they meet AC Milan on Tuesday.

Goals from Edin Dzeko and Henrikh Mkhitaryan have left the Nerazzurri on the cusp of the finale and booking their place at the expense of their fiercest rivals would make the accomplishment even sweeter.

Here's how Simone Inzaghi could set up.


Inter predicted lineup vs AC Milan (3-5-2)

GK: Andre Onana - All eyes are on Onana as the transfer rumours continue to spiral.

CB: Alessandro Bastoni - CEO Beppe Marotta revealed on Sunday that he is 'almost certain' Bastoni will put pen to paper on a new contract soon.

CB: Francesco Acerbi - The veteran defender has established himself as a crucial starter, bringing plenty of experience as the back.

CB: Matteo Darmian - He's not even a centre-back but Darmian is stepping up when Inter need him.

RM: Denzel Dumfries - Rested last time out against Sassuolo, Dumfries' legs will be fresh and ready to go for this one.

CM: Hakan Calhanoglu - The former Milan maestro played a huge role in deciding the first leg and will hope for a similar impact here.

CM: Nicolo Barella - Another regular feature on the gossip column, Barella continues to prove his importance to Inter.

CM: Henrikh Mkhitaryan - Mkhitaryan bagged the second goal in the first leg and continued to build momentum with an assist against Sassuolo.

LM: Federico Dimarco - The assister of Mkhitaryan's goal, Dimarco has now created three goals in his last two European outings.

ST: Lautaro Martinez - Lautaro is in sensational form in Serie A and will be keen to carry that form over to the Champions League.

ST: Edin Dzeko - The toughest decision for Inzaghi is Dzeko or Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian bagged twice against Sassuolo but Dzeko's goal in the first leg should give him the edge.
