Inter welcome Kairat with the Italian side currently boasting a perfect record in the Champions League having won all three of their matches without even conceding a goal.

Kairat picked up their first point of the league phase campaign against Pafos last time out, but should have taken more from the game with their opponents reduced to 10 men early on.

📈 Inter Milan v Kairat Almaty Form & Tactics

Inter have been rock solid in the Champions League so far this season, winning all three of their games to nil and scoring nine goals in the process. None of these victories have been unexpected with Inter turning over Ajax, Union St Gilloise and Slavia Prague so far but they can take a massive step to qualifying in the top eight with a victory here, which they are widely expected to achieve.

Inter have only lost one of their last 11 matches across all competitions with Christian Chivu settling in well to his role as head coach. This was always going to be a difficult transition for Inter seeing as Simone Inzaghi had been at the club for so many years and built a really impressive side that won everything aside from the Champions League.

Chivu has managed to retain core players from that squad, as well as add in reinforcements. I thought Inter were too reliant on their front two of Martinez and Thuram last year and they now have more attacking cover with the likes of Esposito and Bonny producing some positive cameos so far.

Kairat have managed to earn their first point of the league phase which they got against Pafos in a 0-0 draw. Kairat should have done better in the game with 22 shots and an extra man for nearly the entire match. It’s likely that this is the only point that Kairat manage to pick up in the league phase with their remaining fixtures looking challenging on paper.

📔Inter Milan v Kairat Almaty Formation & Team News

Inter have stuck with the 3-4-3 shape that was so successful for them under Inzaghi and led them to the Champions League final. Inter won every domestic trophy on offer in Italy with this shape and they’re still probably the most complete side competing in Europe from Serie A. 

The wingbacks are just as important as they were under Inzaghi, with Inter also having extra attacking reinforcements which is something that they were desperately crying out for last term. 

That being said, Inter probably won’t be at their free flowing best as they are missing Mkhitarayan who is injured for this game. He’s long been a crucial cog in the middle of the park for Inter, but again their recruitment in the window means someone like Sucic can fill in for him. 

Kairat will line up in a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-4-2 which are the systems they’ve used in the Champions League so far. 4-4-2 with a low block is likely to be their formula to try and take something from this game with Kairat severely lacking in quality when compared to the Italian side all over the park.
