International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Manchester City and Inter are looking forward to this Champions League fight to decide who advances from the Final.

These teams have little in common geographically as Inter have to travel 1600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Manchester City and Inter should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
