Inter defender Marco Materazzi and French midfielder Patrick Vieira will not line up against European champions Manchester United tomorrow night after being left out of the squad.
The Italian was at Appiano Gentile with the rest of the squad today, but he has failed to shake of a niggling problem to one of his thigh muscles. Vieira who came on against Bologna on Saturday has not been passed fit enough by Mourinho and he will not be risked.
Sky Sport Italia claim the Italian was sent home early as the rest of the team stayed behind to continue preparations into the afternoon. It is believed 18-year-old Davide Santon, who has been outstanding this season, will take 'Matrix's' place in defence.
Inter have released the list of 19 players who have received the nod and the wink from Mourinho.
The squad to play Manchester United in the Champions League on Tuesday night is as follows:
