Team News: Inter Milan vs. Genoa

Inter Milan will have to do without Maicon, Ricardo Alvarez and Wesley Sneijder for their Serie A match against Genoa this afternoon.

Inter have made three changes to the side that lost 2-0 to Juventus last weekend, bringing in Christian Chivu, Esteban Cambiasso and Mauro Zarate.

Genoa, meanwhile, will be without Juraj Kucka, Luca Antonelli, Andreas Granqvist and Kevin Constant due to injury.

A win could see Inter climb a place up to seventh, but they would still be 20 points behind rivals AC Milan.

Inter: Julio Cesar; Zanetti, Lucio, Samuel, Chivu; Poli, Stankovic, Cambiasso; Zarate, Milito, Forlan

Genoa: Frey; Mesto, Carvalho, Kaladze, Moretti; Biondini, Veloso, Belluschi; Sculli, Gilardino, Palacio.
