Furthermore, it was Inter’s third ‘high-profile’ defeat in Serie A this season after losing to Juventus and Napoli.
Therefore, Chivu will be keen to end this ominous trend tomorrow.
In addition to meeting Atletico Madrid, Inter will take on Arsenal, Liverpool, and Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
Defying their underwhelming results against top teams will, therefore, be crucial to their hopes of securing automatic last-16 qualification.
