The Saudi club have played lacklustre football under new coach Laurent Blanc so far.

Inter Milan next will face Saudi team Al-Ittihad in their pre-season match, as they continue their excellent run during the warm-up before the next campaign commences.

Simone Inzaghi has done wonders ever since he took charge of the Italian side, leading them to the Champions League final in the 2022-23 season. There they lost to Manchester City. Inzaghi even led Inter Milan to the Scudetto last campaign. During his time at the club, the former player holds the record of 104 wins and just 26 defeats in 158 matches.

Inter will aim to remain one of the favourites to win the title once again this upcoming season. Their star player Lautaro Martinez will hope to replicate his previous term form, where he produced 24 goals in 33 Serie A appearances. Martinez later even led Argentina to Copa America 2024 where he produced five goals.

Meanwhile, Al-Ittihad last season was more of a disaster despite signing the likes of Karim Benzema, Fabinho and N’Golo Kante.

The team finished sixth in the league picking up only 54 points in the 2023-24 season. However, with a change in management, they will anticipate that Laurent Blanc will restore the Saudi team to winning ways. But so far in their pre-season games it hasn’t appeared to be the case.

They have lost to Elche and Sevilla. Even suffered a hammering 4-2 defeat against Real Betis. It appears the Middle Eastern club are still undergoing transformation under the former PSG manager. Their game against Inter will be another gruelling test to prove their squad quality.

Fans will be hoping to watch the game where the likes of Benzema, Martinez and Fabinho take on the pitch. Below take a look at where the supporters can see the game.
