A major objective for Inter Milan this season is the Champions League title, something their new coach Jose Mourinho knows about from histime with Porto (as a winner), and successful seasons at Chelsea.

The Nerazzurri have struggled in the competition in the past few seasons but should comfortably make it through to the knockout round after they were drawn in a much kinder group than the other Italian representatives. Werder Bremen, Anorthosis Famagusta and Panathinaikos make up Group B, and the Italian champions kick off their campaign tonight against the Greek team in Athens. Panathinaikos qualified for Champions League football after finishing third in the Greek League, and then winning a four-team play off. Inter won on the weekend in Serie A and will hope to continue their good run by aiming for at least a point in Greece.
