Handed pretty tricky oppositions, these two teams will have their work cut-out to make it past Group B of the CL. Inter Milan have begun their domestic campaign rather more slowly than they would like, picking up a measly seven points from their opening four games.

That said, they have actually been exciting in these fixtures, scoring goals for fun. However, the defensive aspect of their game need major improvements if they are to enjoy a good CL run this season. Expect an entertaining, frantic clash between these sides come kickoff.

Inter Milan vs Monchengladbach Team News

Once world-beaters, Inter Milan have been a shadow of their former selves over the past decade. They have hardly made it into the Champions League in recent years, even struggling to book a ticket to the less attractive Europa League.

However, the Nerazzurri are making a forward leap to re-invent themselves on the European scene. Last season, after failing to progress past the CL group stages, they dropped into Europe’s second-tier competition. Playing some fantastic football, Inter managed to reach the final.

Taking on Spanish side Sevilla in that decisive game, Conte’s men looked the better side but were unlucky to have lost out by a narrow 3-2 margin. Though they remained trophyless all through the season, the Nerazzurri can take positives from their brilliant Europa League run.

Inter Milan finished second on the log last season, just a single point behind champions Juventus to make it into the Champions League group stages. This new season, they will be aiming for more success. In their previous game against AC Milan, they were narrowly dispatched 3-1 by the Devil.

Conte will be encouraging his boys to deliver a better performance in their opening CL fixture versus Monchengladbach. Die Fohlen can count themselves a tad lucky to be present in this competition this term, having scraped really hard to book a spot here.

Neck-and-neck with Bayer Leverkusen for fourth-place, Monchengladbach left it till the final matchday to secure that top-four spot. In the end, they were only two points clear of Die Werkself who will be plying their trade in the Europa League.

The Prussian’s start to the new Bundesliga campaign hasn’t been ideal. One win, two draws and a loss from the opening four games is how Monchengladbach’s form book currently looks. Against lowly Wolfsburg on the last matchday, they were denied maximum points by a late Weghorst strike.

Injured or Suspended Players

Inter Milan: Matias Vecino, Ionut Radu, Milan Skriniar, Roberto Gagliardini and Ashley Young.

Monchengladbach: Andreas Poulsen, Valentino Lazaro, Laszlo Benes, Jordan Beyer and Denis Zakaria.

Inter Milan vs M'gladbach Predictions

For all their attacking brilliance, Inter Milan are so leaky in defense. This is one grey area Antonio Conte must address if the Nerazzurri are to enjoy a fantastic season. Monchengladbach have the deadly duo of Plea and Thuram who will be licking their lips at the prospect of taking on this weak Inter defense.

Given how resilient they are, the Prussians should never be treated with a wave of the hand. We have reason to believe Monchengladbach will clinch a hard-fought victory here, at the expense of Inter Milan.
