RB Salzburg will host Inter for a friendly fixture on Wednesday at the Red Bull Arena in Salzburg. The Austrian champions have already played and won two games in their domestic season and should be better prepared than the Serie A side who are still more than a week away from the start of their domestic campaign.
Salzburg's last outing was a comprehensive 3-0 win over Tirol, with 19-year-old Karim Konate picking up a brace. Inter started their pre-season with a 10-0 win and then were held by Al Nassr before beating PSG in their most recent outing.
This match is sure to be a thrilling one, and it could go either way. It will be a great opportunity for both teams to test themselves against each other ahead of the start of the new season. Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
