Lautaro Martinez is still out of action, now joined on the treatment table by both Alessandro Bastoni and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
That means Carlos Augusto steps into the back three, with Calhanoglu and Denzel Dumfries starting to put injury problems behind them.
Esposito leads the attack and Marcus Thuram is looking for his first goal since February 8.
There are no Inter ultras present due to restrictions, so the fans gathered to see the team off at the train station on Saturday instead.
