And Inter make the trip to the Stadio Olimpico di Torino full of confidence following their 6-0 rout of Iceland s Stjarnan in the UEFA Europa League play-offs on Thursday.

Jean Fernandez has stepped down from his role as Auxerre manager after five years at the helm of the Ligue 1 outfit.
The 56-year-old took the club to ninth place in the league last season a disappointment after finishing third the campaign before.
