Inter Milan vs Liverpool - LIVE Stream

Inter Milan host six-time European Champions Liverpool at the San Siro on Wednesday night in one of the standout ties of the round of 16.

The Nerazzurri have reached the knockout stages of the competition for the first time in a decade (2011/12) and come into the clash as underdogs against the 2018/19 winners.

Simone Inzaghi’s Inter side have been in fine form domestically despite failing to win their last two games (L, 2-1 vs AC Milan, D 1-1 vs Napoli) and can return to the top of Serie A, displacing city rivals AC Milan, if they win their game in hand. Inter have lost just twice in the league all season, the fewest defeats throughout the division.

Inter have also been in fierce form in front of goal during the 2021/22 Serie A season, scoring a league-high 55 goals from just 24 matches played. The defence has also played their part, conceding 20 goals during this period, second best only to Napoli.

Looking back at their exploits across Europe, the Nerazzurri finished second in Group D on 10 points, five behind eventual group winners Real Madrid. While Inzaghi’s side performed admirably against the record European Cup winners, Carlo Ancelotti’s side triumphed on both occasions.

Performance levels will need to be significantly upped however if Inter are to stand any chance of sending Liverpool, who are widely considered as one of the tournament favourites, out of the Champions League.

Inter have been knocked out of two of their previous three knockout stage ties by English opponents. They were defeated by Liverpool in 2007/08, lost out to Manchester United in 2008/09 before going on to conquer Chelsea 3-1 on aggregate in 2009/10 – Jose Mourinho’s Inter side went on to lift the trophy
