It is a fact that Antonio Conte has change Inter. At the moment, the Italian team are leading Serie A and this time it looks like they will fight seriously for the title with the untouchable Juventus.
Now, Inter also have the opportunity of sealing their ticket to the final 16 of the Champions League, something that Giuseppe Meazza's team have not achieved for almost a decade, during Mourinho's reign.
For this to happen, the Italian team will have to beat Barcelona, who don't play well at away from home. Barcelona, with the visit to Anoeta and 'El Clasico' just around the corner, will not take the match too seriously and Valverde will rotate.
But it will not be easy for Conte. Inter keep on piling up the injuries in midfield. The coach cannot rely on Barella, Sensi or Gagliardini, who have all become almost indispensable.
In any case, if anything is to be praised to Conte, it is the fact of having everyone switched on. With Brozovic almost untouchable, in recent weeks Vecino and Borja Valero have been gaining importance.
A solid team that will face Barca with the final 16 in their mind, although Barcelona already know that they will qualify in first position.
