The path in the Champions League for Inter so far has been truly flawless: three matches, three victories, nine goals scored and none conceded. This evening, the Nerazzurri led by coach Cristian Chivu will take the field at San Siro for the fourth match, which will be against Kairat, and the goal is to win in order to make qualification much easier.

Winning this evening would bring Inter to 12 points after four rounds and would help a lot in keeping a positive outlook, especially since the next European matches will all be against very tough opponents. For Chivu, winning tonight would also mean achieving a record for the entire club.

As La Gazzetta dello Sport points out this morning, Inter has in fact never managed to win four matches in a row in the first phase of the Champions League. Getting the three points tonight at San Siro against Kairat therefore takes on a double significance: firstly, of course, for the standings in the tournament and also for this nice record that is within reach.
