Inter Milan vs Liverpool Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA Champions League 2025-26

Internazionale emerged victorious when they last faced the Reds.

Inter Milan will host Liverpool for their round 6 league phase fixture of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League campaign. This is set to be an intense battle between these clubs, taking place at the San Siro Stadium.

The Nerazzurri have performed really well in their last few league matches and will be keen to continue their form here. However, the same cannot be said for their last performance in the UCL.

FC Internazionale Milano fell prey to Atletico Madrid in what was a close Champions League fixture. They will now be looking to return to winning ways in the European competition.

Meanwhile, the Arne Slot-led Liverpool continue to underperform. They were held to a 3-3 draw against Leeds United in their last Premier League game.

Moreover, the Red faced a shocking 1-4 defeat at the hands of PSV Eindhoven in their previous UEFA Champions League game. They will be away from home and might struggle yet again.

Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan)

Hugo Ekitike (Liverpool)

Although it was not enough to get them a win, the Frenchman is coming in after scoring a brace in the previous league game for Liverpool.
