Inter Milan vs Viktoria Plzen UEFA champions League.
.
Following their sluggish start to the season, a recent resurgence has seen Inter claim four wins from their last five matches, including a pair of memorable duels with revamped Barcelona.

A fortnight ago at Camp Nou, the Nerazzurri were denied victory only by Robert Lewandowski's late equaliser, after they had scored three times in the second half to come within touching distance of a famous win and a guaranteed place in the last 16.

Goals from Nicolo Barella, Lautaro Martinez and substitute Robin Gosens seemed set to give Inter back-to-back victories over their rivals for Group C's second spot, behind runaway leaders Bayern Munich, but even their 3-3 draw sees them hold a head-to-head advantage. That means they can assure a precious last-16 place with a win this week.

Indeed, they will still go through if they draw and Barcelona do not win - or, should Xavi's men lose to Bayern, Inter effectively have a free pass to the latter stages.

Simone Inzaghi will want to ensure that his side do not require assistance from the Bundesliga champions, and having lost only two of their last nine group matches in the Champions League - against eventual winners Real Madrid last year and Bayern this autumn - precedent suggests they can get the job done.

Inter's only previous meeting with Plzen was on matchday two, when they came away from the Czech Republic with a 2-0 victory, and an in-form Nerazzurri are expected to prevail once again.

Following wins over Sassuolo and Salernitana, Inzaghi's men most recently came out on top in a thriller to match events at Camp Nou: Saturday's spectacular 4-3 victory at Fiorentina saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan bundle home a winner in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
