Champions League matchday seven will be highlighted by a tantalizing affair on Tuesday, January 20, between Inter Milan and Arsenal at the San Siro. The kick-off is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET. Inter head into this clash in good form, having most recently beaten Udinese over the weekend to stay at the top of the Serie A table. The Gunners, meanwhile, settled for a draw in the Premier League, but they still remain in first place. This should be a very entertaining fixture between two league leaders. Read on for the Inter Milan vs Arsenal picks.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal Analysis
The storyline for Inter over the last few seasons in the Champions League has been disappointing. While they’ve made two finals during that span, the Italian giants tasted defeat in both showpieces. First, Manchester City beat them in the 2023 final, before PSG embarrassed them last year in the grand finale. The hope is they can finally go all the way this term, and Tuesday’s encounter will be a good test to see just how good they really are.
Cristian Chivu’s men are sitting in sixth place in the new-look UCL table, and they’re also three points clear at the top of Serie A. Inter has compiled a 4-0-2 record in Europe’s most prized competition, but they’ve lost back-to-back games in the tournament to Atletico Madrid and Liverpool. Arsenal is arguably even stronger than both of those sides. If they’re going to secure a top-eight spot for the Round of 16, the Nerrazzuri cannot afford another loss here. But, the hosts will need to bring their absolute best.
Arsenal is arguably the class of Europe in 2025-26. Mikel Arteta’s side looks primed to finally lift the Premier League title, and they’re the only club in the Champions League who haven’t dropped a single point. Heading into matchday seven, the North Londoners are a perfect 6-0-0. The Gunners have bagged 17 goals and conceded just once. They’ve looked absolutely phenomenal.
Arteta’s squad is unbeaten across their last 11 matches across all competitions ever since a 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa on December 6. Arsenal cruised to victory in their last UCL clash on December 10, running out 3-0 winners in Brussels against Club Brugge. Gabriel Martinelli has been in top form in the competition, hitting the back of the net five times. Despite their lack of success against Inter, the Gunners are a different beast this term, and they’ll travel to Milan with the utmost confidence.
Inter Milan vs Arsenal Injury News
Inter continues to be without two key players in Hakan Calhanoglu (calf) and Denzel Dumfries (ankle). Raffaele Di Gennaro (hand) and Tomas Palacios (thigh) won’t be available either. However, Chivu decided to rest several starters against Udinese, so he will be rolling out his best starting XI. As for Arsenal, they’re relatively healthy. Max Dowman (ankle), Piero Hincapie (thigh) and Riccardo Calafiori (muscle) are the only absentees.
Inter Milan vs Arsenal Picks
Arsenal have essentially looked flawless in the competition, and their form is impressive at the moment. The visitors will bounce back from the scoreless draw on the weekend and secure another European win.
