Inter vs Kairat Almaty prediction: EUROPE: Champions League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-11-04 20:00.
[p]Inter Milan will look to maintain their 100% winning start to the UEFA Champions League (UCL) league phase when they welcome a struggling Kairat Almaty side.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Inter benefited from a Hellas Verona own goal deep into stoppage time on Sunday to win 2-1 and secure their ninth victory in their last ten competitive games (L1). That includes three UCL league phase victories without conceding a single goal, and head coach Cristian Chivu could now become the first manager to record clean sheet victories in each of his first four UCL matches. The San Siro will be anticipating such a historic result on the basis of Inter winning nine of their last ten UCL league phase games to nil, whilst keeping clean sheets in three of their five home wins across all competitions this season underlines their defensive prowess.[/p]
[p]Kairat are winless in their first three league phase games and, as one of two clubs (alongside Pafos) to have scored only once across those three matches, may not threaten Inter’s streak. They have failed to score in five of their last six UCL games, even setting an unwanted new record in their 0-0 home draw with Pafos last matchday when they played out more minutes without scoring against ten men than any other team in this competition. Still hoping to become the first Kazakh club to win in the UCL proper, it’s unlikely their maiden victory will come on foreign soil after losing six of their last nine (D3) UEFA competition away games during regular time. [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]This will be the first H2H meeting between any clubs from Italy and Kazakhstan. Inter have an excellent record when facing a side for the first time, winning nine of their last ten such UCL games (L1).[/p]
