Inter Milan vs Sheriff Tiraspol prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Champions League 2021-22
High-flying Sheriff Tiraspol will be looking to make it three wins from three when they square off against Inter Milan at the San Siro on Tuesday.
Sheriff currently lead Group D, with six points from two matches played. They have only conceded one goal in those two games, which is a testament to how well their defense has played so far. They beat Real Madrid 2-1 away from home in their last UEFA Champions League game, which saw Sebastien Thill score the winner in the 89th-minute.
Sheriff have been in a rich vein of form and are coming off a 4-0 drubbing of Sfintul Gheorghe. They have won their last five matches.
Inter Milan, meanwhile, are in a spot of bother with just one point from two matches. In their most recent game in Europe, they played out a dour, goalless draw against Ukrainian outfit Shakhtar Donetsk.
Inter Milan will be desperately looking for a win, especially after their embarrassing 3-1 loss to Lazio in the Serie A game which took place at the weekend.
