Tough test for the Gunners at San Siro
Arsenal tonight face Inter Milan in what is surely their toughest test in the Champions League to date this season.
The Gunners are unbeaten in Europe thus far and edged past Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 last time out but today’s opponents are a different prospect entirely.
Finalists two seasons ago and the reigning Italian champions, Inter are also yet to taste defeat in Europe thus far.
San Siro is undoubtedly one of the most iconic grounds in world football and Arsenal can really gauge their progress under Mikel Arteta while up against such a big challenge.
With Arsenal having lost 1-0 at Newcastle on Saturday, Arteta needs a reaction.
Internazionale vs Arsenal is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off time tonight, Wednesday, November 6, 2024.
San Siro in Milan will host.
TV channel: The game will be broadcast on TNT Sports 1.

The hosts are missing Carlos Augusto, while Alessandro Bastoni is reportedly a doubt too.
Gunners captain Martin Odegaard has returned to training in time for the trip to Milan, but Declan Rice missed the session and will not travel to Italy as a result.
Takehiro Tomiyasu, Riccardo Calafiori and Kieran Tierney are not expected to feature, but Ben White is in line to start after coming on against Newcastle.

It’s a difficult task for Arsenal, made even harder with the absence of Declan Rice, with Inter on a hugely convincing run of form.
The hosts’ defence can be got at, though, which will give Mikel Arteta hope of coming away from the San Siro with at least a point.
Draw, 1-1.
Inter Milan wins: 1
