Inter Milan will face Hellas Verona in Serie A this evening.
It is certainly an important match in the Nerazzurri's title defense. They are still within three points of Napoli, and hoping that the league leaders will stumble and allow them to catch up.
Therefore, Inter need three points against the Gialloblu this evening.
However, there is no ignoring the two huge matches on either side of today's match.
On Wednesday, Inter played out a thrilling 3-3 draw away to Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals.
And on Wednesday, the Nerazzurri play the all-important second leg.

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi will undoubtedly have one eye on the second leg against Barcelona.

Therefore, Inzaghi is planning to rotate his squad significantly.
As such, reports Tuttosport, the Inter coach will make wholesale changes in attack.
Firstly, Joaquin Correa will start. The Argentine is not even in Inter's Champions League squad, therefore he will be used to give the other strikers a chance to rest this evening.
Correa had also started in the reverse fixture. He played a starring role in a 5-0 win away to Verona in November.
Then, Lautaro Martinez is out with injury.
The Nerazzurri captain suffered a muscle problem in the first leg against Barcelona.
Meanwhile, Mehdi Taremi came off the bench to replace Martinez in the second half against Barcelona.
However, it will not be the Iranian who starts against Verona today.

Is Texas becoming new Alabama? The Athletic says Longhorns becoming CFB's premier program
For over a decade, the Alabama Crimson Tide ruled college football. Coach Nick Saban seemingly got all the best players en route to an astounding six national championships. But the college football power structure always shifts eventually. Has Texas replaced Alabama on top of college football's highest perch? The Athletic says the Longhorns have. Texas' first year in the SEC was kind of a watershed moment for Texas coach Steve Sarkisian and the program he's building in Austin. Only Georgia prevented Texas from running through the league last year. A conference that was supposed to humble the Longhorns made them stronger. Now, armed with one of the best quarterback recruits of all time, Sark looks to complete the mission at UT and win the national championship ... either this year or next. But with a title or not, it appears to Ralph D. Russo of The Athletic that Texas is the new CFB super power. "Texas is becoming the new Alabama. No, that doesn't mean the Longhorns are going to rattle off a half-dozen titles in the next decade. But this is the season Texas puts its staying power on display. There is always another draft pick. There is always another All-American. The talent conveyor belt is fully operational — and well-funded. The days of stumbling as a 12-point favorite at home appear to be over. Much like Kirby Smart did when he left Saban and Alabama to take over at Georgia, Sarkisian implemented the Bama blueprint at a school with more resources and easier access to talent than Saban's old school, building a program to rival the Tide." - Ralph D. Russo of The Athletic After serving as Saban's offensive coordinator, Sark has brought the Saban way to Texas. No one could evolve with the changing climate in college football better than Saban for over a decade. Much of Texas' success can be attributed to how Texas implements NIL. It's just just having money. Texas leads the nation in managing NIL. The Texas One Fund has at least 20 sponsorship partners, including Texas-based Benchmark Bank. 'The area to differentiate any university is, how many outside — call it true NIL or whatever you want to call it — how many of those opportunities are out there for student-athletes? And having the best model not only is good for your university and you can recruit better and win, but it's also good for kids to get opportunities. So our plan is to continue on that whole for-profit space, to get as many opportunities as we can for our student-athletes in the for-profit brand space.' - Patrick 'Wheels' Smith, president of Texas One Fund The Saban way also turns players that might think they've "made it" by getting a scholarship and NIL funds to play at a program like Texas into players obsessed with winning that hate losing. 'Excellence is exhausting, but it's worth it. (The players) see the success of their peers, and they're like, I want that, you know? The Outland trophies, the Thorpe awards, the All-Americans, the first-round picks, the draft picks, the College Football Playoffs. The on-the-cusp-of-a-national-championship. I want that. So how do I get there? It's pretty simple. The only thing I just keep looking for is, is there a complacency? Because complacency is, that'll get you. And we're fortunate. We've got no room to be complacent, because we haven't won the thing yet, you know?' - Texas coach Steve Sarkisian To put the crown jewel on his achievement in Austin, Sark needs to win a title. Based on its first preseason No. 1 ranking in program history, it could happen this year. Follow us on X/Twitter at @LonghornsWire.

Newcastle signs Germany defender Malick Thiaw from AC Milan
NEWCASTLE, England (AP) — Newcastle signed Germany defender Malick Thiaw from AC Milan on Tuesday. The 24-year-old Thiaw spent three years at Milan, making 85 appearances in all competitions — including one against Newcastle in the Champions League. Thiaw, who predominantly plays at center back, has played three times for Germany. He is the third signing of the offseason for Newcastle, which is back in the Champions League in the coming season. 'The gaffer (Newcastle manager Eddie Howe) showed me his vision and what he wants to do with me as a player and the club itself, which is really exciting," said Thiaw, who has reportedly cost Newcastle around 35 million pounds ($46 million). 'I think Newcastle speaks for itself. It's a great club, a big club with passionate fans who I can't wait to see at St. James' Park.' Howe said Thiaw 'will add real quality to our defensive options.' 'Malick is still young but brings valuable experience of Champions League football, as well as playing in the Bundesliga and Serie A, which is a major positive for us as we return to Europe this season," Howe said. ___ AP soccer:
