Inter Milan vs Kairat

, KO: 20:00 , San Siro
Kairat

Inter Milan have a perfect record so far in this season's UEFA Champions League and it would be a massive surprise if they failed to make it four wins in a row against Kairat.

I thought the Kazakh side would be whipping boys after being far from impressed by Kairat as they edged out Celtic on penalties in the play-offs.

That's how things have panned out so far, although they did get a point on the board on matchday three with a 0-0 draw at home to fellow minnows Pafos.

Things have been much tougher against the big boys, with a 4-1 thrashing away from home against Sporting followed by a 5-0 home loss to Real Madrid, as all three bets landed for Slips Tips.

They now face a daunting trip to the San Siro to face an Inter side who have already beaten Ajax, Slavia Prague and Union Saint-Gilloise.

The Serie A side blazed a trail to the Champions League Final last season and look in decent shape for another extended run in the competition.

The only loss in Inter's last 10 games came away to Napoli so Cristian Chivu has them ticking along nicely and they should be too strong for Kairat.

How the bookies view it: Kairat 50/1 rank outsiders

This looks like a mismatch and it's reflected in the odds, with BOYLE Sports pricing Kairat at a whopping 50/1. Inter Milan are just 1/20 and the draw pays 14/1.

Head to head: History in the making 

These sides have never faced off before and it's also the first time Inter have taken on a side from Kazakhstan. Kairat have yet to face Italian opposition too.  

Players to watch: Frattesi back in the fold? 

Chivu might use this game to rest a few of his big hitters so it could pay to back some fringe players for goals. Midfielder Davide Frattesi netted 10 times for club and country last term and is 5/4 at Bet365 for anytime scorer. 

Wonderkid Dastan Satpaev looks Kairat's best chance of a shock San Siro goal. The 17-year-old Chelsea-bound striker scored three times in the qualifiers. 

Inter Milan: Sommer, Akanji, Bisseck, Bastoni, Dumfries, Zielinski, Frattesi, Calhanoglu, Carlos Augusto, Bonny, Esposito.

Kairat: Anarbekov, L Mata, Martynovich, Tapalov, Sorokin, Jorginho, Arad, Glazer, Mrynski, Gromyko, Satpaev.

Anything else catch the eye?

Kairat have only scored once in three Champions League games and fired blanks against a Pafos side reduced to 10 men after just four minutes. Inter have the meanest defence in the tournament, with three successive clean sheets, so a home win to nil looks likely, although the odds are poor at 4/9.

It's tricky finding value anywhere but BOYLE Sports have a good option that allows you to combine correct scores. Backing Inter to win either 2-0, 3-0 or 4-0 looks worth a punt at 11/8.

The Italians will want to kill this game off early so I also like the 11/10 on offer for Inter -1 in the first-half handicap.

The assist market also offers some good prices, with every Inter player at odds-against. A lot depends on who Chivu picks but if Denzel Dumfries isn't rested, he looks good at 2/1 to set one up.
