Inter Milan vs Liverpool predictions: Reds can lift the gloom at San Siro
Liverpool have won on their last four visits to the San Siro when facing Inter or AC Milan
Inter are fourth in the standings, Liverpool 13th
Recommended bet: Liverpool to win
Liverpool's Premier League title defence may lie in tatters, but they remain well placed to secure a top-eight finish in the Champions League and can take a big step to achieving that aim by beating Inter Milan in the San Siro on Tuesday.
The Reds have won three of their five games in Europe this season and, even though Inter have managed four wins from five and are a fearsome prospect for most teams, Liverpool are capable of maintaining their winning run in the famous stadium and earning all three points in Milan.

Team news
Denzel Dumfries is pushing to return for Inter after an ankle injury, but Matteo Darmian (calf) is unlikely to be fit.
Tomas Palacios and back-up goalkeeper Raffaele Di Gennaro are both ruled out for the Serie A giants.
Mohamed Salah will likely have to be content with a place on the bench, at best, for Liverpool again following his post-Leeds outburst.
Alexander Isak will hope to start after coming on as a late sub at Elland Road, while there could be rotation from boss Arne Slot, who has the likes of Andy Robertson, Joe Gomez and Alexis Mac Allister all vying for recalls.
Jeremie Frimpong is still out with a hamstring problem for the visitors and Giovanni Leoni will miss the rest of the season with a serious knee injury.
The stats
Inter have beaten Ajax, Slavia Prague, Union Saint-Gilloise and Kairat Almaty so far in the league phase, before losing 2-1 to Atletico Madrid on Matchday Five.
The Serie A side have won their last three games in all competitions, while Liverpool have won just four of their last 14 games in total.
Slot's side are on an unbeaten three-game run, though, with a win over West Ham and draws against Sunderland and Leeds in the past week.
Liverpool have beaten Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League this season, while losing to Galatasaray and PSV Eindhoven.
This is the two teams' sixth meeting in European competition, with Liverpool holding a 4-2 advantage in the head-to-head record.

Prediction
There is no denying Liverpool's recent form has been alarming, with Slot's side on a run of nine defeats in their last 14 games all told.
There are issues that need to be addressed, but the manner of the much-improved display at Elland Road suggests Liverpool can go to Inter and get a result.
The hosts are on a fine three-game winning run, beating Pisa, Venezia and Como by an aggregate score of 11-1 in recent weeks, while Cristian Chivu's side have comfortably beaten Ajax, Slavia, Union Saint-Gilloise and Kairat in Europe.
However, they suffered a setback last time out in this competition when they lost 2-1 late on at Atleti – a team Liverpool beat 3-2 on matchday one – and the Reds can inflict another defeat on the Italians this week.
Slot's side can profit against opponents who should be willing to place much more emphasis on attack, therefore leaving the Reds welcome space to do damage in the final third themselves.
