Despite their torrid start to the Italian Serie A season, with only one loss in eight matches — and that coming to defending champions Juventus, as The Inquisitr reported — Inter Milan have faltered in the UEFA Champions League. The Nerazzurri have won neither of their two opening games, suffering an away defeat to Spanish titlists FC Barcelona — and an embarrassing home draw to Slavia Praha, the Czech First League champions.
As result, at the half-way mark of group stage competition in the 2019/2020 Champions League, Inter find themselves in a must-win position when they host German Bundesliga eight-time champs — and last season’s runners-up — Borussia Dortmund, who also lead Group F, known as the tournament’s “Group of Death,” with Inter, Dortmund, and Barcelona — as well as Slavia Praha — battling for only two available slots in the knockout stage.
