Atletico Madrid: Current form and team news
The narrow defeat at San Siro suggests Atleti's chances to qualify for the quarter-finals are big enough. However, in reality, there are not so many grounds for optimism.
It's not just about how strong Inter Milan are, it's more about Los Rojiblancos' current form. After the trip to Italy, Atletico got beaten 0-3 by Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish Cup. Moreover, they somehow managed to get just one point from two games against La Liga outsiders: 2-2 vs Almeria and 0-2 vs Cadiz.
In one word, Atletico are in a crisis, and the absence of Cesar Azpilicueta, Antoine Griezmann, Jose Gimenez and Thomas Lemar isn't making their task easier.
Inter Milan: Current form and team news
The Nerazzurri look so much stronger than their opponents, it's unbelievable. In the first clash between the sides, Inter Milan were dominating and should have scored more but lacked efficiency. For instance, Marko Arnautovic was especially wasteful.
Following the 1-0 UCL win, Inter were victorious in all four Serie A games that followed. With 16 points separating them from runners-up AC Milan, they can now fully focus on the Champions League.
All key players are fit, including Marcus Thuram who picked a knock in the first clash with Atleti.
