Inter Milan have enjoyed a dream return to Serie A action following the international break in March.
In fact, Chivu’s men picked up six points from their last two league games against Roma and Como.
They therefore head into the final six rounds of matches with a nine-point lead over second-placed Napoli.
Meanwhile, they are potentially 90 minutes away from reaching the Coppa Italia final.
De Vrij and Bonny will start the clash between Inter Milan and Cagliari
After a goalless draw in the first leg at the Sinigaglia Stadium, Inter will host Como at San Siro in the second leg of the semi-finals next Tuesday.
Furthermore, the Nerazzurri cannot currently count on Lautaro Martínez, Alessandro Bastoniand Yann Bisseck.

Therefore, Chivu wants to avoid further injury problems before Como’s visit to Giuseppe Meazza.
De Vrij, whose last start in Serie A came in a 2-0 win over Genoa at the end of February, could get the nod before Francesco Acerbi.
In fact, the 38-year-old needs a rest after making two consecutive starts in the league for the first time in 2026.
On the other hand, Bonny could take Francesco Pio Esposito’s place in attack and partner the resurgent Marcus Thuram.
