Lautaro Returns for Inter vs Roma Clash

Inter Milan talisman Lautaro Martinez is set to make his first Serie A start since February in the upcoming clash against Roma, returning as the league's top scorer.

Despite missing three Serie A fixtures last month, Lautaro Martinez remains the division's top scorer with 14 goals, three more than second-placed Anastasios Douvikas. The Argentine has spearheaded Inter's title charge, with the team averaging 2.2 goals per game with him compared to less than a goal without their captain.

Inter have failed to win three consecutive Serie A games for the first time since 2023 in matches without Lautaro. Now only six points clear of second-placed AC Milan with eight games remaining, Inter will be keen to bounce back with their star forward returning to the starting lineup.
