As part of their pre-season preparations, Inter Milan will face Al Ittihad at U-Power Stadium in Monza on Wednesday night. This friendly match will see the Serie A champions test their mettle against the Saudi Pro League giants.

Serie A Champions Preparing for Another Dominant Season | Home Win = 1.26

Inter Milan, fresh off a dominant Serie A campaign where they finished 19 points clear at the top, are gearing up to defend their title. Under the guidance of Simone Inzaghi, the Nerazzurri have transformed into a powerhouse, winning 104 of his 158 matches in charge. Inter are also eyeing success in this season's revamped Champions League.

Star striker Lautaro Martinez, who scored 24 goals in 33 league appearances last season and was the top scorer for Argentina in their Copa America triumph this summer, remains a key figure for Inter after his contract extension. Despite the departures of experienced players like Alexis Sanchez and Juan Cuadrado, Inter remain a formidable force.

Inter's pre-season has been promising, with the team remaining unbeaten in their first four matches. However, they had a close call against Serie B side Pisa, needing a late equalizer from Yann Aurel Bisseck to avoid a surprise defeat.

Al Ittihad, champions of the Saudi Pro League in the 2022-23 season, had a challenging 2023-24 campaign, finishing fifth and missing out on both the AFC Champions League and AFC Cup.
