Match Time & Date:

03:00 PM
Prediction: 2-2
Borussia Dortmund
All eyes will be on Stadio Giuseppe Meazza when Inter and Borussia Dortmund face each other in Group F derby on Wednesday evening. The Nerazzurri were more than unfortunate not to grab something from their last group game against Barcelona as they missed several clear-cut opportunities to score in the first half of the match. Antonio Conte’s men are likely to go all guns blazing at Borussia Dortmund and we predict that they are going to find the net in the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza clash.
The Bundesliga side proved their worth in a 2-0 win at Slavia Prague and they are definitely capable of matching Inter in Milano. A close encounter is on the cards and we predict that the two teams are going to share the spoils in their third group game. A man to watch in the home team will be Romelu Lukaku, whilst Inter defenders should have England rising star Sancho at bay.
