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

Nerazzurri will take on the Red and Whites in the UEFA Champions League.

Inter Milan will host Czechia giants Slavia Praha at the iconic San Siro in the grand stage of the UEFA Champions League.

Inter started with a win as they beat Ajax by 0-2 in their first UCL match. However, things are not going well for Inter in Serie A, as they have dropped points in two games and now find themselves in 10th position. But they will surely hope to get back-to-back wins in the Champions League.

They are undefeated against Salvia Praha in the Champions League and will make sure to keep that record in the upcoming fixture. Cristian Chivu will be under a lot of scrutiny if his team fails to deliver performance in the upcoming fixtures. Against Praha, he will hope his team wins by a good margin.

On the other hand, Slavia Praha played out a draw against Bodo/Glimt in their first UCL game of this season. The match ended in a 2-2 scoreline. They did perform decently, but they will be disappointed not to win the home fixture.

Every match will matter for them, as they will face some tough teams in the upcoming UCL matches. Praha will have to be confident going into this crucial match. They will hope to at least get a point against the Italian giants.

Players to Watch

Francesco Pio Esposito (Inter Milan)

The Italian striker epitomises the blend of technical finesse, tactical intelligence, and raw athleticism. He possesses an imposing physical presence on the field, which he exploits to great effect in both offensive and defensive phases of the game.

The Italian’s technical proficiency is evident in his ball control, dribbling and shooting abilities. He showcases a remarkable composure and precision when taking shots. Esposito’s agility and close ball control enable him to navigate through tight defensive lines, creating scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates.

Muhammed Cham (Slavia Praha)

The Austrian is a versatile left-footed midfielder who’s got experience playing out wide and centrally in both advanced and deep midfield positions. He likes to involve himself in the game and always asks for the ball. Cham is a confident and courageous player who likes to take on players and doesn’t fear losing the ball in midfield.

He is really good at scanning and somehow is always able to find spaces to exploit on the field. The Austrian also likes to link up with his teammates in the attacking third and helps them to create opportunities to score. Cham is yet to score his first goal of the season.
