VERONA - Chievo coach Rolando Maran discussed his team's season opener against the Nerazzurri in a pre-match press conference yesterday: "We're aware of Inter's pedigree and, although they recently changed coaches, they still have great talent in the side. They've only played once under De Boer, so we don't know how they'll set up. They have everything it takes to have a successful league season."
Maran is set to embark on a third straight campaign at the helm of the Gialloblu, a record only matched by Allegri at Juventus. The Chievo coach consistently operated with a 4-3-1-2 system last term.
Here are the players he's selected to face Inter:
Goalkeepers: Sorrentino, Seculin, Bressan;
Defenders: Spolli, Gamberini, Sardo, Cacciatore, Cesar, Dainelli, Gobbi, Frey;
Midfielders: Hetemaj, Castro, Costa, Rigoni, Depaoli, Radovanovic, Birsa, Bobb;
Forwards: Pellissier, Inglese, Meggiorini, Parigini, Jallow.
