Atletico Madrid vs Inter - Champions League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction
- Marko Arnautovic's goal separated the two sides in Champions League last first leg
- Inter were dominant but could only claim a 1-0 lead
- Atletico were beaten in La Liga at the weekend
Inter hold a 1-0 advantage heading into their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night.
The Nerazzurri were dominant for large swathes at San Siro as their stellar domestic form permeated into this continental tie. However, they only breached Jan Oblak's defence once through Marko Arnautovic, who'd previously missed a couple of golden opportunities.
Atletico are still very much in the tie and their supreme record at the Wanda suggests Inter have their work cut out if they're to advance into the quarter-finals.
The hosts have stumbled domestically, however, losing at Cadiz on Saturday after succumbing to Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey semi-finals. Inter, on the contrary, have remained majestic in Serie A and are waltzing towards the Scudetto.
Here's 90min's preview of Wednesday's Champions League round of 16 second leg.

Atletico Madrid vs Inter score prediction
The Wanda certainly has a huge role to play as it was clear from the first leg that Inter are the superior outfit. The Nerazzurri, though, may come to rue a litany of wasted opportunities from the first leg.
Atletico should be braver on home soil, especially out of possession, but such courage could play into Inter's hands given their proficiency in the build-up. The hosts need Griezmann fit and firing against a stubborn Inter backline and they've got to find a way of bypassing Yann Sommer between the sticks.
Overall, the dynamic of Wednesday's bout could be similar to the first leg with Inter showing their class in a tough environment to prevail.
Prediction: Atletico Madrid 0-1 Inter
