FC Internazionale will face Sheriff Tiraspol on Wednesday in UEFA Champions League action

European football returns this week and will see Sheriff Tiraspol host Inter Milan in the fourth matchday of the UEFA Champions League group stages.

Sheriff Tiraspol have performed brilliantly in their debut Champions League campaign.

After beating Shakhtar Donetsk 2-0 in their opening game, Sheriff Tiraspol picked up a famous 2-1 win over Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, they fell to a 3-1 defeat to Inter Milan in their last game.

Sheriff Tiraspol sit second in their group with six points from three games. They are joint on points with first-placed Real Madrid and will be looking to continue their strong performances on Wednesday.

Inter Milan have had a rather slow start to their Champions League campaign. They lost 1-0 to Real Madrid in their first game before playing out a goalless draw against Shakhtar Donetsk. Inter Milan, however, picked up their first win last time out with a 4-1 win over Sheriff Tiraspol.

The Italians sit third in the group, three points behind the top two teams. They will be looking for back-to-back wins on Wednesday to keep their hopes of qualification alive.

Sheriff Tiraspol vs Inter Milan Prediction

Sheriff Tiraspol have already exceeded expectations in their Champions League campaign so far and will be excused for any shortcomings in their next games. However, the Moldovan outfit will be looking to make a point in the tournament by advancing to the knockout stages.

Inter Milan have failed to advance from the group stages in their last three Champions League campaigns and will be desperate to end that trend. With the visitors in good form ahead of the game on Wednesday, they should be able to secure a decisive win.

Prediction: Sheriff Tiraspol 1-3 Inter Milan
