The San Siro is set for a group‑stage showdown in the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League as Inter Milan host Kairat Almaty in Round 4. Inter arrive boasting a perfect three‑from‑three record in the group, having scored nine goals and conceded none. Kairat, by contrast, sit on just one point from three outings and have conceded heavy defeats. With qualification still in their grasp for both sides, albeit via different trajectories, this match offers a compelling contrast of elite European pedigree versus ambitious underdog.
Inter Milan team overview
Inter’s recent form has been impressive. Apart from a 3-1 defeat to Napoli in Serie A a couple of weeks ago, the Nerazzurri have claimed four wins from a possible five across all competitions, including a dominant 4-0 victory over Union Saint-Gilloise. Inter remain one of only five teams yet to drop a single point in the Champions League group stage this season and one of just two sides boasting a perfect defensive record with no goals conceded - the other being Arsenal.
Although Inter’s performances in both domestic and European competitions have been outstanding, the calibre of their opponents in the opening three group-stage fixtures has not been elite, to say the least. Cristian Chivu’s men opened their campaign with a 2-0 win over Ajax - a side currently struggling in the Eredivisie and far from their best form - followed by an easy 3-0 home victory against Slavia Praha. Two weeks ago, they added a third consecutive win, defeating Union SG 4-0. Nonetheless, their attacking firepower and defensive discipline deserve recognition regardless of the opposition’s pedigree.
On the injury front, Inter have not been as fortunate as their on-field performances suggest. They enter this fixture with five players sidelined: Di Gennaro, Palacios, Thuram, Darmian, and Mkhitaryan are all ruled out.

Kairat Almaty team overview
Kairat enjoyed dominant form domestically in the 2025 Kazakhstan Premier League. Across 26 matches, they recorded 18 wins, 5 draws, and just 3 losses, scoring 53 goals and conceding 19. They secured their fifth league title by a narrow two-point margin, finishing ahead of Astana, who collected 57 points.
However, the step up to the Champions League group stage has exposed their limitations. Their current record includes two heavy defeats - 0-5 to Real Madrid and 1-4 to Sporting CP - along with a goalless home draw against Pafos FC. The Champions League debutants will be eager to avoid another heavy defeat on Wednesday, but Inter’s flawless record and exceptional balance between attack and defence paint a bleak picture for Kairat ahead of their visit to San Siro.
Elder Santana and João Paulo are both ruled out through injury.

Prediction
Putting the numbers together, Inter’s superior form both domestically and in Europe suggests they should control this fixture and easily cruise to their fourth win in a row. Their 2.40 goals per match scoring rate and zero goals conceded so far in the group underline their momentum. Kairat’s domestic defensive stats (0.73 goals conceded) are impressive, but they have struggled badly against high-quality opposition at this level. The prediction is Inter to win and it should be yet another clean sheet for the Nerazzurri.
Prediction: BTTS - NO
Three reasons we expect BTTS - NO
- Inter have the perfect defensive record after three UCL matches with no goals conceded.
- Kairat have only managed to score once in the first three UCL matches.
- In the 2024-25 UCL group stage, Inter conceded only one goal in eight group fixtures.
