Salzburg-Inter is a match valid for the fourth day of the group stage of the Champions League and is played on Wednesday at 9:00 p.m.: TV, lineups, predictions.
A Calhanoglu penalty and Lautaro Martinez’s usual seal allowed Interto win the difficult challenge in Bergamo with Atalanta and keep the top spot in the league. SimoneInzaghis Nerazzurri remain at +2 on Juventus, at this point the most fearsome pursuer given that Milan foundered at home against the revived Udinese.
Waiting for the match with Frosinone next Sunday, but above all for the highly anticipated direct clash with Juventus immediately after the national team break,Inter have an obligation to try to secure qualificationto the Champions League round of 16, which is much closer after their success two weeks ago over Salzburg at the San Siro (2-1). The Austrians in the Milanese capital proved to be more hostile than expected. Down by a goal at 20′ of the first half – pierced by Chilean Sanchez – they continued to give Inzaghi’s team a hard time, finding the equalizing goal at the beginning of the second half through Gloukh, before finally capitulating following the penalty converted by Calhanoglu, decisive for the three points that allow Inter Milan to keep pace with Real Sociedad-the Basques have 7 points like the Nerazzurri but for the moment are ahead thanks to a better goal difference-and to move within +4 of third-placed Salzburg.
Dumfries doubt for Inzaghi
So a fairly tight duel for first place is on the horizon, with Inter having the opportunity to face Real Sociedad at the San Siro after the break.
First, however, there is to beat Salzburg at the Red Bull Arena, a place where the red-and-whites are notoriously more comfortable. GerhardStruber‘s boys since the defeat to Inter Milan have racked up three consecutive victories between the league and national cup (Altach, Hartberg and Tirol) while keeping their goal inviolate two out of three times. The two successes in the Austrian Bundesliga were worth overtaking Sturm Graz at the top of the standings. Very long, meanwhile, is the list of unavailable players at home Roten Bullen: Fernando, Okoh, Omoregie, Koita, Terzić, Piątkowski, Kameri and Kjærgaard will not take part in the Milan trip. Inzaghi is without Pavard and Cuadrado, but on the eve of the match he didn’t train eitherDumfries: in case of the Dutchman’s forfeit it will be up toDarmianplay full-back.

The Prediction
Salzburg lost their only match played in the Champions League in front of their home crowd against Real Sociedad. And the only three points they have picked up so far came on the road, going on to win at home to Benfica. Inter has been more effective away from home this year and should be able to get the better of Austria as well in another closely contested match in which Struber’s men will most likely score as well.
