There’s plenty at stake in this Champions League game as Borussia Dortmund host Inter Milan. This is the final set of games in the league phase of the UCL. Can The Prussians get a vital home win? Read our match prediction.
Borussia Dortmund are 16th in the table, the final position that takes a side into the seeded play-offs. They are only a point clear of 17th place that would see them in the play-offs but unseeded. On the plus side, Dortmund are just a couple behind the final automatic qualifying place
Inter Milan were the losing finalists last year and are guaranteed a place in the play-offs this season. The Serie A side are only a point adrift of the final automatic qualifying position but a loss in Germany could see them be unseeded in the play-offs. It's been an up and down league phase for Inter.

Borussia Dortmund - Inter Milan: Form Analysis
Borussia Dortmund look certain of a play-off position because of their goal difference. Automatic qualification for the last 16 is still possible but the Black and Yellow will need to win this game to have any chance of doing so.
Last week saw them lose 2-0 at Tottenham and that made it just a single point from their last two UCL fixtures following a home draw with Bodo/Glimt. Dortmund had won their two previous home games in this league phase, scoring four against both Atletico Bilbao and Villarreal.
The loss at Newcastle is their only defeat in their last nine league and cup games.
Inter are hoping to avoid a fourth straight UCL defeat.
Inter began this league phase with wins over Ajax, Slavia Prague, USG and Kairat. Automatic qualification for the last 16 looked very likely but since then the Black and Blues have lost to Atletico Madrid, Liverpool and Arsenal, the latter two both at home.
Their three away games have all been won and by an aggregate score of 9-0. They currently top Serie A by six points and beat Pisa 6-2 at home last Saturday.nd Yellow will need to win this game to have any chance of doing so.

Borussia Dortmund & Inter Milan Squad Analysis
Borussia Dortmund will be without Daniel Svensson for this game. The defender was sent off in last week’s loss at Tottenham. He will likely be replaced by Ramy Bensebaini. The German Bundesliga side also have both Marcel Sabitzer and Niklas Sule out injured.
Will Guirassy be back in form?
Dortmund have scored 19 goals so far in this league phase, just one fewer than the top scorers. Only three have been scored by Serhou Guirassy, compared to his 13 in the UCL last season but is still a key figure up front.
Inter Milan have lost their last three games in the league phase, two on home soil. Their away record has been strong with a couple of wins so far. Both Manuel Akanji and Henrikh Mkhitaryan formerly played for Dortmund. The latter was on target at the weekend as the Serie A leaders beat Pisa 6-2.
Inter rested several players for that game and a win will be needed to secure automatic qualification. Just how other games progress on Wednesday is likely to decide just how they play in Dortmund. The last thing they want is to end up as an unseeded side in the play-offs.

Our Borussia Dortmund vs Inter Milan Prediction
Inter really should already be guaranteed a place in the last 16. However, four successive wins in the league phase have been followed by three defeats in a row. They have been impressive on the road so far but will find this trip to Dortmund a difficult one.
Dortmund would prefer to be a seeded club in the play-offs but if they fail to beat Inter, they could end up being unseeded. They score plenty of goals but concede far too many. Our main Borussia Dortmund v Inter Milan prediction is both teams to score.Borussia Dortmund vs Inter Milan Alternative Predictions
