UEFA Champions League | 2026-10-21 21:00
San Siro/Giuseppe Meazza, Milan
📊 Match Insights
Inter Milan, former Champions League champions, will host Shakhtar Donetsk at San Siro on Wednesday, still searching for their first points in this season's tournament.
Inter faced a dramatic defeat in their last match, losing 4-3 to Club Brugge, while Shakhtar remains unbeaten after securing a 3-1 victory in London.
The Italian side's struggle in the Champions League continued last week, as they were shocked by Club Brugge despite Lautaro Martinez scoring twice for Inter.
Historically, Inter had never lost in European competitions when scoring three or more goals, but Nicolo Tresoldi's hat-trick broke that trend.
After being eliminated in the first knockout round last season by Bodo/Glimt, Inter started this year's campaign with a 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid.
Currently, they are on their longest losing streak in the Champions League, having lost seven of their last eight matches in the competition.
As runners-up in both 2023 and 2025, the pressure is mounting on head coach Cristian Chivu to rectify these poor results.
In contrast to their struggles in Europe, Inter is performing well domestically, sitting at the top of Serie A with only two points dropped this season.
