Inter Milan and Liverpool met for the seventh time at the top level in the 2025-26 Champions League league phase in December 2025, and the Reds managed to win yet again at the San Siro.

The meeting itself was a dull affair, with the only moment of note in the first half Ibrahima Konate's disallowed goal in the first half for a handball offence by Hugo Ekitike.

Dominik Szoboszlai converted a late penalty to give Arne Slot's side a 1-0 victory, though headlines were dominated by the omission of Mohamed Salah from the squad after he had criticised the head coach.

From the clubs' first six meetings in the Champions League/European Cup, the Reds prevailed on four occasions, while the Italian giants have just two victories under their belts.

One of those triumphs for Inter did come at Anfield as recently as March 2022, when Simone Inzaghi's men earned a 1-0 victory over Jurgen Klopp's side in the second leg of their last-16 tie, but it was ultimately in vain.

Indeed, Liverpool had already triumphed 2-0 at San Siro a couple of weeks before, as Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah's goals proved sufficient for a quarter-final place before their final heartbreak vs. Real Madrid.

Fourteen years prior, Liverpool and Inter were also pitted against one another in the last 16 of the 2007-08 UCL, in which Rafael Benitez masterminded a 3-0 aggregate triumph over the Serie A side.

The Reds firstly won 2-0 at home thanks to late goals from Dirk Kuyt and Steven Gerrard, before Fernando Torres gave them a 1-0 victory at San Siro, as an Inter team boasting Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Patrick Vieira, Maicon and current manager Cristian Chivu crashed out.

Inter's only significant triumph over the Reds so far came back in the days of the old European Cup, as the Nerazzurri overcame their English foes 4-3 on aggregate in the 1964-65 semi-finals.

Despite suffering a 3-1 loss at Anfield in the first leg, Inter pulled off a stunning second-leg turnaround, winning 3-0 before edging out Benfica 1-0 in the final.
