Inter take on the visitors Real Sociedad in the round 6 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 12th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (Milan).
Inter were recently the country's champions, but that was under Antonio Conte. His successor, Simone Inzaghi, ia to work with much tighter possibilities, especially financially. Despite that, Inzaghi has already secured several trophies and led the team to the final of the Champions League in the previous cycle. Compared to June, the core of the black and blue have undergone significant changes. Nevertheless, they are performing well and currently top the Serie A table. Of course, for Lautaro Martinez and company, it is crucial to continue surpassing Juventus and others. While the Champions League is important, the primary issues there have been resolved early. After a 1-1 draw in San Sebastian, they defeated both Benfica and, twice, Red Bull (Salzburg). Hence, they could afford to play against Benfica with a semi-reserve squad. In Lisbon, they conceded three times before the break but managed to equalize.

Real Sociedad are trying to make the most of the long-awaited opportunity. The Txuriurdines are not considered giants in Spanish football, but under Imanol Alguacil in recent years, they have made significant progress. They won the Spanish Cup, securing their first trophy in a decade, and last season, not on their first attempt, climbed to the 4th position, as Sevilla vacated that spot due to their prolonged crisis. Currently, they are playing better than their longtime competitor Athletic, and even the emerging team Girona in the current season. Another chance to prove themselves in the Champions League might not come soon. Currently, the Spaniards look worthy of this opportunity. They almost won against Inter in the first round, with Inter equalizing late with Lautaro Martinez's goal. However, they handled nominal underdogs confidently, winning against both the Austrians and the Portuguese twice. It's not surprising that, having already secured progress, they settled for a goalless draw against Red Bull in the last round.
The clubs played against each other in 1979 in the UEFA Cup. They exchanged confident, dry home victories. For both clubs, it's more important to save energy for domestic tournaments. Therefore, we will go with a bet on total under 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
