The number nine of Lecce will be keen on scoring some goals and is one of the most important players. Nikola Krstovic can surely be a threat to Inter Milan’s defence at some point.

Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan)

The ace Argentina striker led his side to a close 1-0 win over Sparta Praha in Inter Milan’s recent UCL match. Lautaro Martinez also became the top scorer for Inter Milan in the Champions League. Martinez is always a threat to opponents’ defence whenever he is looking to attack.
