Is the hope of Mak not unrealistic? “That is the other side of the coin. Inter finished second in the competition last season and therefore lost the Champions League final. They have not started very well this season. The new trainer, Christian Chivu (former Ajax), is not entirely on track.”
Chaos at Inter
“So there is emotional chaos at Inter at the moment,” Mak thinks. “Based on the recent results, I have some hope. Juventus won 4-3 in an important match last weekend. Hopefully that Inter will give a mental tap instead of extra motivation against Ajax.” His prediction? “2-1 for Inter.”
