Inter president Massimo Moratti appears in confident mood ahead of the Nerazzurri's Champions League showdown with Barcelona next week, hinting that Samuel Eto'o could be the game-breaker.

The two giants will be looking to place one foot into the next round by winning the game.

"I think the game will be decisive for us as well as them," Moratti told Il Corriere Dello Sport.

"We don't really want to leave it to the last game to qualify."

Former Nerazzurri hitman Zlatan Ibrahimovic is in doubt for the encounter, but the Italian hopes to see him play.

"Ibrahimovic? That will not be a problem for us," Inter's president said. "He is a champion, but we have to know how to deal with him.

"We have a champion in Samuel Eto'o. He has not scored in the Champions League for us, but he usually gets goals in big games."
