Inter Milan head coach Cristian Chivu could hand Ange-Yoan Bonny a rare start alongside Marcus Thuram in Tuesday’s Coppa Italia semi-final second leg against Como at San Siro, with rotation expected across several positions.
According to Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews, Chivu is planning changes for the cup tie while keeping one eye on Sunday’s potential Scudetto-clinching trip to Torino.
Bonny could partner Thuram up front, giving the France striker a chance to make his case in one of the season’s biggest remaining fixtures.

Furthermore, Chivu could hand Luis Henrique a start.
Either replacing Dumfries on the right or coming in for Dimarco on the left.
Indeed, Yann Bisseck returned to group training on Saturday and could feature at the back.
Acerbi is expected to start again in the back three.
However, Bastoni continues to train individually. Corriere confirm his involvement against Como “is not excluded, but he could yet remain out.”
Therefore, Chivu heads into Tuesday’s tie with genuine decisions to make.
Indeed, balancing the Coppa Italia ambition against the need to keep his best players fresh for the Scudetto run-in.
The Serie A title is now all-but guaranteed.
However, Chivu will not want to run any risk of a late upset.
