Inter vs Liverpool preview: Prediction, date, kick-off times, venue, how to watch Champions League match on DAZN
This week, UEFA Champions League action returns, with F.C. Internazionale Milano hosting Arne Slot's Liverpool at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza for Tuesday's main attraction.
Inter and Liverpool head into round 6 of the league phase in an appealing position, but both will be looking to bounce back from defeats in the previous round.
Inter, who currently sit in fourth, suffered their first Champions League defeat of the season, losing 2-1 away to Atletico Madrid.
Whilst Liverpool (13th) were stunned by a brutal 4-1 loss to PSV Eindhoven at Anfield, their joint biggest UCL home defeat in the past 20 years.
The European giants have had slightly indifferent seasons from usual, with Inter adapting to life under new head coach Cristian Chivu and Liverpool suffering from poor form for parts of the season.
The two sides, who are just three points apart, will still have their eyes firmly set on securing a place in the round of 16 with a top 8 finish.
Inter and Liverpool share 9 UCL titles between them - but they have only shared the pitch four times in the 21st century (07/08 round of 16, 21/22 round of 16), further adding to the excitement of the high-stakes game this Tuesday evening.

Inter vs Liverpool - the key men

For Inter, who else?
In a season where some of the Nerazzurri stars have shown signs of decline, Alessandro Bastoni has remained a stalwart at the back.
Outside of his obvious defensive capabilities, Bastoni provides a vital ball-playing outlet in his overlapping wide-centreback position.
This season, Liverpool have not been as dangerous going forward, and Bastoni may just keep that trend going.
Dominik Szoboszlai - Liverpool

Dominik Szoboszlai has stood strong and tall when others have faltered in a difficult season for Liverpool.
With the arrival of Florian Wirtz in the summer, many may not have expected the vital role Szoboszlai has played out for the Reds.
The Hungarian has played wherever his manager has needed him, and he has rarely failed to impress.
Known for his incredible stamina, Szoboszlai's relentlessness could be key in winning the midfield battle against an ageing Inter side.
Inter vs Liverpool prediction
This is a really tough one to predict, as both sides have displayed inconsistencies.
Inter have only lost once in the UCL this season, but the strength of their competition so far can be questioned.
We should expect a better performance from Liverpool in their last Champions League outing, but are they capable of going away to the San Siro and returning with a result?
I am not convinced.
