A mandatory formation. Adli remains the real dilemma. Cataldi ready to be there. Comuzzo pushes Dodo high

Never before has there been such a frantic wait to understand who will be on the list of players called up Raphael Palladino will issue this morning in view of the recovery against theInter. On Tuesday the coach, perhaps with a little pre-tactics, had announced that for the match against the Nerazzurri there would be only fourteen players available, waiting to receive good news from the injured. Good news that, in reality, at least in part has arrived: Cataldi e Hit will certainly appear in the list of available players for today while some more doubts remain around Judicial, who still doesn't seem to have overcome the ankle problems he suffered during the week.

Not only that: by virtue of what is expected to be a midfield reduced to the bone (the three midfielders bought in the winter transfer window, Folorunsho, Fagioli and Ndour, will not be able to play), it is also likely that the former Lazio player will grit his teeth and take to the field from the 1st minute, within the classic two-man line that should be completed by Mandragora. Yes, but what will be the starting module with which the Fiorentina will face the Italian champions in a challenge that will last "just" 75 minutes? The feeling is that, from the start, Palladino does not want to deviate from the 4-2-3-1 who has made his fortunes for most of the season but then, especially in the non-possession phase, his team will redesign itself in a 4-4-2, like the one seen in the second half against Lazio and Genoa. For this to happen, the chances of using Comuzzo as a right back, within a defense that will be completed by Pongracic, Ranieri and Gosens. Speaking of the midfield, the surprise in the three-quarter line could be represented by Dodo in an advanced position, with Gudmundsson and the joker Beltran in support of Kean.
