Manchester City vs Inter Milan predictions: Cityzens begin new campaign with a tricky clash
Manchester City face Inter Milan in their opening match of the new Champions League season at the Etihad Stadium on Thursday night.
Manchester City, champions in 2023, had a sensational run last season as well, but were marginally pipped by eventual champions Real Madrid. However, they enter the new season as one of the favourites again with a power-packed squad at their disposal. Inter Milan, meanwhile, are keen on keeping up their impressive start in the Italian league. In the last few editions, they made their mark in Europe and will not make things easy for Man City.

Head to Head Record: Manchester City vs Inter Milan
Both teams only met once in the Champions League before, which was the 2023 final. Rodri scored the winner in that match to give Man City their only CL title.
Manchester City
Manchester City began the season with a Community Shield victory over Manchester United and have a 100% record so far in the league. Erling Haaland has been in beastly form in the new season, having already scored two hat-tricks in his nine goals. They were tested in their previous match against Brentford, only redeemed by the two Haaland goals. Guardiola would love to see his other attackers get on the scoresheet as well.
Inter Milan
Simone Inzhagi’s team have been one of the top contenders in Europe in recent years. They came close to winning the Europa League and Champions League in the last five years but failed in the finals. The ambitions are set higher for the team in the new season and they have a string of tricky clashes in this edition, beginning with this match. However, they have registered two wins and a draw so far in the league and are coming into this game in good form.

Man City the force to reckon with
Manchester City’s 100% record in this new season, to go with their terrific run in the Champions League, they are quite a force to reckon with and Inter Milan will need some miracle to win this.
