Inter Milan will welcome Barcelona to the San Siro for matchday three of the Champions League group stages on Tuesday, and the Italians will be eager to put their troublesome domestic form behind them for the clash.
Currently sat ninth in Serie A with 12 points after nine games, Inter are struggling to impress and manager Simone Inzaghi is under increasing pressure with each passing week.
The Nerazzuri lost their last two Serie A games to Udinese and Roma, respectively, but sit level on points with Barcelona in Group C after two games played. Both teams will need to win, or at least not lose, if they are to keep their positions strong for qualification to the knockout rounds of the Champions League.
However, Barcelona, unbeaten in La Liga having won six and drawn once in their opening seven league games of this season, will visit the San Siro full of optimism. Despite losing 2-0 to Bayern Munich in the last game week, Barca performed admirably and came away scratching their heads as to how they didn't win, let alone pick up a point.
Barca have conceded just once in La Liga, too, highlighting their resolute defence. With Jules Kounde, Ronald Araujo and Hector Bellerin all returning from international break with injuries, though - alongside Dutch pair Memphis Depay and Frenkie De Jong - there are question marks heading into this fixture about whether the Catalan club will be able to keep Inter quiet.
Marcelo Brozovic and Romelu Lukaku are both missing for the Italian side, while Lautaro Martinez is also a doubt for the game. Regardless, Inter have only failed to score once in their nine competitive fixtures this season (against Bayern), highlighting the team's ability to find the back of the net.
Both clubs lost 2-0 to Bayern in their respective games earlier in the group stages, while the pair both beat Viktoria Plzeň. Inter won 2-0 against the Czech club, with Barca thrashing them 5-1 in the opening round of fixtures.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Champions League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
