Inter Milan vs Liverpool Prediction and Analysis: Burning Down the Visitor Team

Latest team news for Inter Milan vs Liverpool

Conor Bradley returned from a muscle injury sustained in the draw against Leeds — and also received a yellow card leading to a suspension — so Liverpool are only without Jeremie Frimpong (hamstring) and Giovanni Leoni (anterior cruciate ligament) this week.

Bradley's suspension doesn't apply to European competitions, so the Northern Irish right-back can continue to start, and Joe Gomez could replace Ibrahima Konate, who is experiencing a serious dip in form.

All eyes will, of course, be on whether Salah is named in the starting lineup, but it would be a surprise if he started after his controversial statements — it's highly likely he'll just sit out.

Inter could also welcome back right-back Denzel Dumfries — who is working to recover from an ankle injury — however he may only feature on the bench.

Matteo Darmian (calf) still needs more time to recover, while centre-back Tomas Palacios (hamstring) and reserve goalkeeper Raffaele Di Gennaro (navicular bone) will also be absent.

Lautaro Martinez — who scored his 11th goal of the season against Como — is also in excellent form with a run of five consecutive Champions League home games scoring, and he is likely to continue partnering Marcus Thuram in attack.

Latest predicted lineups for Inter Milan vs Liverpool

Latest football match prediction: Inter Milan vs Liverpool

From the euphoria of victory over rivals Real Madrid to the utter disappointment of being thrashed by PSV Eindhoven at Anfield, Liverpool fans experienced the full spectrum of emotions in this year's Champions League — the final result of which equaled a 96-year-old record for the worst performance.

The 1-4 defeat to the Dutch side was Liverpool's third home loss by at least three goals in the 2025-26 season — something that hasn't happened since 1929-30 — and saw them drop out of the top eight with just nine points.

Optimists might cite Liverpool's three-game unbeaten run since that defeat, but the 2-0 win against West Ham United didn't provide the expected turnaround in the Premier League, as they were followed by disappointing draws against Sunderland and Leeds United — two newly promoted teams.

In Saturday's 3-3 draw, where Liverpool conceded the equalizer in the 96th minute, Mohamed Salah — who didn't play a single minute — caused a major stir by accusing Liverpool of "making him a scapegoat" and admitting that his relationship with manager Arne Slot "no longer exists".

Liverpool's leadership has yet to respond to calls to sack the manager who is under immense pressure, and if they side with Slot — which seems to be happening — we could very well see Salah's final games in a Liverpool shirt.

For now — whether on the pitch or on the bench in Milan — the 33-year-old will still try to contribute to Liverpool's pursuit of a fourth consecutive victory against Italian teams in Europe, although his current form suggests this task will not be easy.

While Inter's most recent Champions League match also ended in a disappointing result — a 1-2 defeat away to Atletico Madrid after conceding a second-half stoppage goal — that loss was clearly not as shocking as the upset Liverpool suffered at the hands of PSV.

Furthermore, Cristian Chivu's team had a perfect record in Europe before their defeat against Atletico, despite facing opponents who were considered weaker: Kairat, Union SG, Slavia Prague, and Ajax.

However, Inter have handled their part well and are currently fourth in the 36-team standings, level on points with Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, and only three points behind the absolute leaders Arsenal.

Last season's runners-up are also thriving in the domestic league since their defeat against Atletico, winning three consecutive matches in Serie A and Coppa Italia with a combined score of 11-1, most recently a 4-0 victory over Como on Saturday.

Jurgen Klopp's side beat Inter 2-0 at San Siro in the 2021-22 Champions League, but the Nerazzurri have now won 10 of their last 11 group stage/league-phase matches at home, and they fully deserve to be rated much higher in their attempt to extend that number to 11 out of 12 against a struggling Liverpool.
