Inter Milan In Pole Position To Lock Down UEFA Champions League R16 Spot | OneFootball

Inter Milan are well-positioned to secure a coveted top-eight finish in the league phase of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League edition.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the reigning Scudetto holders should lock down a place in the Round of 16.

Upcoming matches against Sparta Prague and Monaco will drop the curtain on Inter’s impressive league-phase campaign.

Simone Inzaghi has overseen a near-faultless European season, except for a heartbreaking defeat at Bayer Leverkusen.

Indeed, Inter have kept a clean sheet in their five remaining Champions League outings this term.

In doing so, they’ve amassed 13 points, a tally only bettered by Liverpool and Barcelona.

With two games to go, Inter boast a narrow one-point lead on three sides sitting on the periphery of the top eight.

Therefore, Inzaghi’s charges can ill afford complacency in the last two rounds.

Sparta Prague shouldn’t pose any threat to Inter’s lofty ambitions.

Despite playing at home, the Czech giants have lost their last four European games.

Meanwhile, Monaco could throw a spanner in the works.

However, Inter will entertain the French club at Giuseppe Meazza, where they’ve won all three league-phase matches ‘to nil.’
