Inter Milan will look to book their spot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League as they look to convert their first-leg advantage against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
Last year’s runners-up have been in formidable form in 2024, winning all 13 games including a 1-0 home win in the first leg against their Spanish opposition.
Atletico, meanwhile, have been sluggish of late, winning just one of their last five games in all competitions, including a disappointing 2-0 away defeat against relegation-threatened Cadiz.

What is the team news?
Atletico will be hopeful that Antoine Griezmann and Jose Gimenez will be fit enough to play a part in the second leg after their recent injury troubles, but Diego Simeone will certainly be without Thomas Lemar, Cezar Azpilicueta and Vitolo who all remain sidelined with longer-term injuries.
Inter, meanwhile, will be without first-leg goalscorer Marko Anautovic after the Austrian picked up a muscle injury on the weekend. Wing-back Carlos Augusto is also a doubt but Simone Inzhaghi’s side will be boosted by the return of Hakan Calhanoglu after the Turkish midfielder made his return against Bologna at the weekend.
