Thuram seeks Champions League goal in high-stakes clash
24 Feb
Summary
- Thuram will lead Inter's attack due to Martinez's calf injury.
- Inter aims to overcome a two-goal deficit at home.
- Thuram has not scored in seven Champions League matches.

Marcus Thuram is expected to lead Inter Milan's forward line in their pivotal Champions League encounter tonight, aiming to break his goal-scoring drought in the competition. His opportunity arises as key player Lautaro Martinez is sidelined with a calf injury sustained in the previous match.
Thuram is likely to partner with Francesco Pio Esposito, who scored Inter's sole goal in the first leg. Despite a two-goal deficit from their away fixture, Inter is determined to fight back, particularly at their formidable San Siro stadium. The team has secured victories in their last three home games.
Inter has demonstrated a potent offense this season, netting 86 goals in 38 matches. Thuram, specifically, will be eager to improve his European performance, having failed to score in seven consecutive Champions League appearances since his early-season brace against Ajax.
