Inter Form and Team News

Inter have been Italian powerhouses for long but the time has passed since they last tasted success in the European circuit. They last won the title way back in the 2009-10 season. They won the league last season after a long wait of over 10 years, if they can produce a performance as such in the Champions League this time around, then we can expect the Italians to go all the way. In the Serie A, they have been quite scratchy to say starting off. In the three matches played so far, they have won two while drawing one other game and presently placed in the fourth position. They are facing CL giants Real Madrid in a crucial Group D clash at home. They can burst open the group if they happen to topple the Spanish team in the games to come. 

Simone Inzaghi after taking charge is getting used to the Inter setup and we can expect the results to take a turn in sometime given all players respond to the manager’s call. Inter have one of the most potent strike force in the form of Argentine sensation Lautaro Martinez, Chilean Alexis Sanchez, Dzeko, Correa and co to name a few. In the midfield, they have Arturo Vidal, Calhanglu, Perisic and Barella. This team can repeat history in Europe given they produce results like how they did last season in Serie A.
