Inter Milan have taken no injury risks ahead of facing Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.

Head coach Simone Inzaghi rested almost his entire first-choice XI for the final round of Serie A fixtures last weekend. Yann Sommer, Federico Dimarco and Hakan Calhanoglu are the only players who faced Como who retain their place in the side tonight.

Benjamin Pavard and Yann Bisseck have both been struggling with minor injuries but both are both fit for the final. Pavard gets the nod from the off and will start on the right of his back three alongside Francesco Acerbi and Alessandro Bastoni.

Denzel Dumfries, who has been one of the best players in the Champions League this season, will start at right-wing back with Dimarco on the other flank.

Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicola Barella will start as two of the three central midfielders, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Davide Frattesi vying for the other spot.

Frattesi scored the extra-time winner against Barcelona in the semi-finals but Inzaghi could go with the experience of Mkhitaryan.

Martinez will be partnered up front by Marcus Thuram.

Inter confirmed starting XI: Sommer; Bastoni, Acerbi, Pavard; Dimarco, Mkhitaryan, Calhanoglu, Barella, Dumfries; Thuram, Martinez

Subs: Di Gennaro, Martinez, De Vrij, Zielinksi, Arnautovic, Frattesi, Asllani, Augusto, Bisseck, Darmian, Zalewski, Taremi
