Preview: Manchester City vs Inter
Manchester City have made an excellent start to the Premier League title defense, and currently come into this game having won every single one of their league fixtures so far. The Cityzens were given an early scare when they went 1-0 down against Brentford last weekend, only for Erling Haaland to do what he does best and save the day. Not surprisingly, the Norwegian striker stole the show, with his brace enough to help secure all three points for Pep Guardiola's men at the Etihad and ensure that City's formidable unbeaten home record lived to last for another day.
Haaland has scored all but two of City's 11 Premier League goals so far this season, which certainly will be a major source of concern for upcoming opponents Inter. The Nerazzurri, for their part, come into this game having dropped points in a disappointing one-all draw against Monza last time out. That sees Simone Inzaghi's men currently two points behind surprise league leaders Udinese, but there of course is still plenty of Serie A football to be played between now and May.
Although City have a very impressive record in the Champions League - they are unbeaten in their last 23 games - Inter are no slouches themselves. The Italian giants have managed to beat four different English sides on the road in European competition (Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, and Liverpool) and could become the first Italian team to make it five English scalps should they manage to end their upcoming hosts' formidable home record.
