Inter Form
Liverpool Form
Inter host Liverpool at the San Siro on 9th December, and this one feels massive for both sides as they fight for a spot in the Champions League Round of 16. In the Inter vs Liverpool prediction, we talk team form and how both teams arrive with strengths that genuinely make this a heavyweight matchup. You’re looking at a fixture where small details could swing it either way, and that’s what makes this such a fun one to break down.
Inter walk into this fixture with a mostly intact squad, though they’re still without Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who is sidelined with a thigh issue. The good news for them is that Matteo Darmian and Denzel Dumfries may return after recent spells out, giving Inter a boost on the right side and increasing Simone Inzaghi’s tactical flexibility.
Liverpool’s situation is a little trickier. Giovanni Leoni is confirmed out, while Conor Bradley, Florian Wirtz, and Jeremie Frimpong are all pushing hard to return in time. With such an intense away schedule — two tough trips in a row — squad depth really matters here. Arne Slot made clear in his recent press comments that the team is working tirelessly despite setbacks, and you can sense they’re desperate to steady the ship after those heavy defeats.
Yann Sommer; Yann Bisseck, Manuel Akanji, Alessandro Bastoni; Carlos Zopalato Neves, Nicolò Barella, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Piotr Zielinski, Federico Dimarco; Lautaro Martínez, Amadou Bonny.
Bench options: Martinez, Taho, De Vrij, Sucic, Thuram, De Lima, Acerbi, Frattesi, Diouf, Cocchi, Alexiou, Esposito.
Giorgi Mamardashvili; Curtis Jones, Ibrahima Konaté, Virgil van Dijk, Milos Kerkez; Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Mohamed Salah; Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo, Hugo Ekitike.
Bench options: Woodman, Misciur, Gomez, Endo, Isak, Chiesa, Robertson, Nyoni, Ngumoha.
Inter have been sharp in this season’s Champions League. Four wins from five, only three goals conceded, and an average of 2.4 scored per match — that’s the profile of a team that knows how to control games, especially at home. And remembering they are unbeaten in their last 18 Champions League matches at the San Siro, the home confidence is real.
Liverpool, meanwhile, remain dangerous even when inconsistent. They’ve won three of their five UCL matches, scoring 2 per game on average, but the defensive side has been shaky — particularly the recent 4–1 home loss to PSV. That result alone makes you wonder whether they can keep Inter quiet here.
So, when you’re thinking Inter vs Liverpool tips, the first angle is simple:
Inter are strong at home, Liverpool score often but concede often, and momentum leans towards the hosts.
Both teams scoring feels live in this matchup, especially since Liverpool have found the net in all but one Champions League match this season.
Here’s what I think… Inter’s rhythm, defensive shape, and home consistency give them a slight edge. Liverpool always bring threat through Salah, Gakpo and Szoboszlai, but the recent heavy defeats raise valid concerns about defensive stability on the road.
Inter, on the other hand, look balanced. Çalhanoğlu dictates the midfield tempo, Barella covers every blade, and Lautaro Martínez continues to be a clutch presence.
My match prediction leans toward an Inter win in a tight, competitive game where both teams land blows.
Match Prediction: Inter to win. Bet with bet365.
A narrow Inter win makes sense given the patterns: Inter efficient, Liverpool dangerous but leaky. If you’re thinking correct score angles, a 2–1 Inter win fits the flow of the matchup — competitive, not cagey, with goals at both ends.
Correct Score Prediction: Inter 2-1 Liverpool. Bet with bet365.
With both sides averaging 2+ goals per match, the natural lean is toward the Over, but not an explosive one. Inter’s excellent defensive record balances things out. You could easily see a match that lands in the 2–3 goal range — enough action without becoming chaotic.
Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
A realistic bet builder:
It lines up with form, style, and how both sides generally operate in the Champions League
Bet Builder Tip: Inter double chance, both teams to score, and Lautaro Martínez to score anytime. Bet with bet365.

Inter feel slightly favoured thanks to home form and defensive stability, but Liverpool absolutely have the attacking tools to make this close.
Yes looks likely, given Liverpool’s scoring consistency and Inter’s strong attacking numbers.
At the iconic San Siro in Milan.
Very. Both clubs are pushing hard for an automatic place in the Round of 16.
