| 1' | No Inter fan can forget our last trip to the Stadio Tardini, but for those who have it was on Sunday 18 May 2008 when Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned from injury to score twice and wrap up our 16th Scudetto. |
| 1' | We're game on at the Tardini as Inter kick off. FORZA NERAZZURRI!!!! |
| 1' | We'll be kicking off a few minutes late as Parma keeper Mirante has been given permission to return to the dressing room to change his socks. |
| 1' | Parma: 83 Mirante; 5 Zaccardo, 15 Dellafiore, 6 Lucarelli; 80 Valiani, 11 Jimenez, 4 Morrone, 14 Galloppa, 7 Castellini; 86 Bojinov, 20 Biabiany.<br>
Subs: 1 Pavarini, 3 Antonelli, 8 Lunardini, 9 Lanzafame, 19 Zenoni, 43 Paloschi, 45 Galassi.<br>Inter: 12 Julio Cesar; 13 Maicon, 6 Lucio, 23 Materazzi, 2 Cordoba; 4 Zanetti, 19 Cambiasso, 8 Thiago Motta; 27 Pandev, 22 Milito, 9 Eto'o.<br>
Subs: 1 Toldo, 7 Quaresma, 15 Krhin, 17 Mariga, 25 Samuel, 39 Santon, 45 Balotelli. |
| 1' | The lineups are official. José Mourinho has revolutionised his defence, with Lucio returning from suspension, Materazzi coming in for Samuel, and Cordoba replacing Santon at left-back. There are no other changes to the team that demolished Cagliari at the weekend. |
| 1' | There are two other other ex-Inter players in the Gialloblu XI: French striker Jonathan Ludovic Biabiany and Argentine defender Paolo Hernan Dellafiore. Hernan Crespo, another former Inter player who transferred to the Emilia-Romagna side after a six-month spell at Genoa, is out injured. |
| 1' | Tonight's match sees an early return to the Tardini for MacDonald Mariga, who completed his co-ownership switch from Parma ahead of transfer deadline at the start of last week. Luis Jimenez was loaned out to the Gialloblu as part of that deal on his return from West Ham and the Chilean attacking midfielder is in Parma's starting lineup to face his former side. |
| 1' | Inter go into tonight's match, postponed from the end of last month, with an eight-point lead over Roma who leapfrogged AC Milan into second spot with a slender win in Florence on Sunday evening. That means we will open up a massive 11-point gap with victory against Parma, who are without a win in six games. |
| 1' | There's no I in team now though. The Nerazzurri are a more complete unit this season, thanks also to some shrewd moves on the transfer market. We're dominating our Serie A opponents, playing better football, and the goals are coming from all over (48 of them in 22 league games). |
