Ranieri Missing Trio For Inter Match

Tomorrow night at San Siro the most interesting tie of the Coppa Italia quarter finals will take place as Inter host Juventus.

It will undoubtedly be a hard-fought game, as always seems to happen when these two sides meet, no matter what competition it is.

The league match in Turin between the two sides was the last game Inter didn't win, and they are currently on a run of 13 consecutive victories. The 1-1 draw was celebrated almost as a victory by the Juve players, and they would consider it a brilliant achievement to knock out their bitter rivals from the Coppa Italia.

However, the Bianconeri will be missing three important players like Hasan Salihamidzic, Pavel Nedved, and Gigi Buffon. All three players are suffering from various injury problems: the Bosnian has a problem to his right calf, Nedved has pharyngitis, while the Italian number one is suffering from a back ache.

That means Emanuele Belardi will take Buffon's place between the sticks, while at least three players of the four players from the youth team Claudio Ranieri decided to call up will take place on the bench.
