Inter Milan vs Arsenal Preview

Inter Milan

Inter Milan is one of the most entertaining teams in Serie A this season, thanks to the attacking style implemented by their coach, Simone Inzaghi. 

The Nerazzurri rank among the top two teams in terms of goals scored and expected goals created in Seria A. So far, none of the Italian teams have been able to stop Inter’s dynamic attacking formation, allowing them to score in every match this season.

The only team that has not conceded to Inzaghi’s side has been Manchester City in the Champions League. However, the Nerazzurri had several excellent chances to score in that match, but Marcus Thuram failed to capitalize.

At the same time, Inter’s players focus heavily on attacking, often using a large group to overload the opponent’s penalty area. However, this approach leaves them vulnerable to counterattacks. Currently, Inter ranks seventh in Serie A for goals conceded and seventh in terms of expected goals conceded.

The team’s defensive struggles are exacerbated by the absence of a high-quality defensive midfielder, while the wingbacks do not always manage to return to their defensive positions. Additionally, the centre-backs and goalkeeper Yann Sommer are having an inconsistent season.

However, in their UCL opener against City, Inter employed their traditional ultra-defensive style with high-speed counterattacks, managing to minimize the number of dangerous chances. This indicates that they can adopt a strategy that differs from their Serie A approach when facing top teams.

It will be fascinating to see what style Simone Inzaghi chooses for the crucial home match against Arsenal: will he opt for a defensive approach or adopt a more attacking strategy?

Arsenal

Arsenal are now three Premier League games without a win. The Gunners lost 0-2 away to both Bournemouth and Newcastle and drew 2-2 at home against Liverpool.

Arsenal are struggling without key fullbacks Takehiro Tomiyasu and Riccardo Calafiori, while Oleksandr Zinchenko and Ben White are just returning to fitness, and Jurrien Timber is still adjusting to his new role as a fullback. This lack of productive, attack-minded fullbacks has disrupted Arsenal’s ability to transition the ball smoothly through midfield into the final third.

At the same time, Mikel Merino is still adapting to Arsenal’s system, and he has occasionally struggled to contribute effectively to the team’s attacks in central areas and the right half-space.

However Arsenal’s main concern is their increasing number of goals conceded compared to the start of the season. This decline can be linked to accumulated fatigue and the absence of their key center-back, William Saliba, who was suspended against Bournemouth and Liverpool.

Arsenal had a strong UCL start, securing seven points in their first three matches. However, the upcoming away match against Inter will likely be their toughest challenge in the tournament.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Head-to-Head Statistics

The last time these two teams faced each other was during the 2003-04 season. Inter won the first match in London with a 3-0 score, but Arsenal exacted revenge by defeating Inter 5-1 in Milan. 

It is surprising that, since then, these two clubs – both regular competitors in the Champions League – have not played against each other. However, the new UCL format has allowed them to meet for the first time in 21 years.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Player Focus

Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli are likely to be key players for Arsenal against Inter. These wide forwards can exploit Inter’s wingbacks’ lack of discipline and attempt to penetrate the opponent’s central defense through dribbling and dangerous passes from deeper positions provided by their teammates.

On the other hand, Benjamin Pavard and Alessandro Bastoni can pose significant challenges to Arsenal’s pressing game. Both center-backs are skilled at resisting pressure and effectively moving the ball into the opponent’s half. 

Their ability to engage in combinations and maneuvers with teammates can greatly enhance Inter’s attacking play. Additionally, Pavard and Bastoni will serve as reliable support for Inter’s wingbacks in various situations.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Tactical Analysis

The key battle on the pitch is likely to take place in the center, where Inter’s 5-3-2 formation could provide them with a numerical advantage of 3 vs 2 over Arsenal’s players, who will set up in a 4-4-2 formation.

Conversely, if Inter adopts a low defensive block, Arsenal’s fullbacks will have greater freedom during the attacking phase. However, if Inter opts for a high press, they might risk finding themselves in a 3-on-3 situation in their own half against Arsenal’s technical forwards.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Prediction

  • Football pick: Total Under 3.5
  • Odds: 1.22 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Inter Milan 1-1 Arsenal

Both clubs have important matches coming up in their domestic leagues. Inter Milan will be facing Napoli, the leaders of Serie A, while Arsenal will take on Chelsea, who currently fourth in the Premier League.

Given this context, a goalfest is unlikely. Both teams are expected to play defensively and conserve their energy as much as possible.

Therefore, I believe there will be fewer than four goals scored in this match.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: Total Shots on Target. Bukayo Saka Total Over 0.5
  • Odds: 1.8 (22Bet)

Regardless of how well Inter defends, Bukayo Saka is likely to find a chance to take a dangerous shot on target. This is particularly true since Inter’s central defenders have made several serious mistakes this season and will find it challenging to stop Saka.
