So, round after round, chances of reaching the playoffs of one of the favorites of the group are gradually decreasing. Indeed, in terms of individual skill and team play the Nerrazzurri are stronger than those of Shakhtar or Borussia M?nchengladbach. However, the Milan club failed to realize their trump cards in the fights against these teams. First points in the group were lost already in the opening round, when Antonio Conte’s wards could not beat the stallions at San Siro. Moreover, despite the fact that “Inter” was the first to open the score, they managed to save the game only in the 90th minute. This was followed by an unsuccessful trip to Shakhtar. Italians looked stronger, they controlled the ball more, struck 12 shots on goal, but in the end were content with a goalless draw. Thus, decisive matches for the nerrazzurri may be matches against Real Madrid. And in case of failure in both, chances of getting to the next round of competitions will not be so great. Inter lost the first match in Madrid. Moreover, the defense failed again and again at the end of the match. Rodrigo’s goal ten minutes before the end of the match was decisive, the score is 2:3. Thus, after three rounds Antonio Conte’s wards have only two points on their balance sheet and occupy the last place in the group’s standings. They are three points behind the leading Borusia and two points behind Shakhtar and Real. If you look at the game of the Milan club as a whole, it looks too unstable. In the last nine matches, they managed to get only two wins. In the national championship, Inter beat the weak Genoa (2:0) and Torino (4:2). However, it should be noted that the team loses points mainly due to problems in defense, because in five of the eight previous matches, it missed at least twice. Matias Vecino and Andrea Pinamonti will not be able to help in this meeting due to injuries. Also, Marcelo Brozovic and Aleksandar Kolarov got into the infirmary with the coronavirus.
It seems that Salzburg is making its way to the Champions League group stage simply to delight its fans with big teams and good football. The Austrians taught everyone that they are a riding collective. This season they confirm it again. Taking into account the qualifications, Jesse Marsh’s charges have already played 5 matches. In each of them at least 3 goals were scored. In addition, every time a bet was recorded on “both will score – yes”. Directly to the group of the Champions League the bulls have already scored 6 goals and conceded 11. Only Red Bull and Ferencvaros conceded 11 goals in 3 matches. In the last 12 away matches Salzburg suffered only 2 defeats in the Champions League with 6 victories and 4 world outcomes. Plus, the last 5 trips of the Austrians within this tournament ended with “OZ – yes”. Striker Patson Duck may not be on the pitch due to a thigh injury.
