Inter coach Cristian Chivu will likely start both Manuel Akanji and Stones in the Nerazzurri's back three on Monday evening, while Curtis Jones and Petar Sucic will compete for a starting spot in central midfield. Stones joined Inter on a free transfer after the end of his Manchester City contract in July and has made three appearances across all competitions so far, all as a substitute.

The 32-year-old made his Serie A debut in the first game of the season against Monza and was also introduced from the bench in Inter's recent 2-1 Champions League loss against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu. After the Udinese game, Inter will travel to Roma to face the Giallorossi on Saturday, September 19.

Chivu will provide the latest team news at a press conference tomorrow, Sunday, September 13, at 14:00 CET [13:00 BST].
