When the Champions League groups were drawn, no one could have reasonably predicted that Real Madrid and Inter Milan would occupy the bottom two spots of Group B heading into Matchday 4.
Yet that's the scenario that faces the two European giants as their struggles through the first three round allowed Borussia Moenchengladbach and Shakhtar Donetsk to claim first and second place, respectively, halfway through the group stage.
Now Inter hosts Madrid with both teams desperate for points, but the Italian side is surely more in need of a winning result in Wednesday's match. The Nerazzurri sit dead last in the group with just two points, and they dropped their Matchday 3 meeting with Madrid, 3-2.
Fortunately for both clubs, the group is still wide open as only three points separate top from bottom. But their play through the first half of the group stage hasn't inspired confidence that they'll be able to flip the proverbial switch and dominate their remaining three games as needed.
Either way, Wednesday's match will be crucial.
