Last season, few left-backs in the Premier League could rack up as stellar numbers as Davies. And even though he's currently a notch below that blazing form, he has already assisted once in the Champions League. His offensive penchant also helped average almost two key passes a game, while Davies has been sound defensively too with 2 average clearances and 1.5 interceptions per game.

Centre-back: Stefan De Vrij

The Dutch centre-back has brought immense solidity and robustness to Inter's backline, justifying their £36 million outlay in his acquisition from league rivals Lazio. De Vrij averages two tackles per game in this competition whilst a great vision of things sees him make almost four clearances too.

If there is the need, he also charges out of his zone to get the ball up and has also netted once so far. However, in the Champions League, he assisted Matias Vecino in scoring the winner against Spurs in the opening game.

Centre-back: Milan Skriniar

The mortar to De Vrij's brick, Skriniar complements his Dutch ally with a great sense of positional awareness as well as impressive passing range. He averages four tackles and clearances each per match and also likes to dribble the ball out of danger.

Right-back: Danilo D'Ambrosio

Kevin Trippier's unfortunate injury means there are few options left in this department. However, D'Ambrosio has been impressing at the back for Inter this season and would be important in dealing with Heung-min Son. He's also good in the air and holds on to the ball well. The Italian international forays forward on occasion, and has also bagged a goal in the league.
