Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of Inter v Catania at the Giuseppe Meazza in Milan... Kick-off is at 19:45 UK time!

Pazzini tries to turn and latch onto Milito's through ball inside Catania's area, but he goes down. Appeals to the referee are turned away. That was a hopeful one...

Catania defend in numbers as Forlan makes it to the by-line and cuts back a low cross, which is cleared...

Nagatomo opts to ignore Cambiasso's supporting run, cutting in off the right flank and firing a shot over as Inter continue to seek a response to Catania's goal...

A bit of a lull in play as Inter knock the ball around patiently in midfield...

The corner is cleared but Catania keep the pressure on, Gomez almost linking well with Bergessio. Inter break it up and come away with the ball.

Gomez almost gets in again as Inter are caught flat-footed at the back. Samuel manages to get a foot in and concede the corner...

Great finish from Gomez as he gets put through on goal, takes Nagatomo on, cuts inside and dispatches a delightful curling effort into the bottom right corner! 1-0 to Catania!

GOAL FOR CATANIA! Gomez strikes!

Palombo pulls out an equally wasteful cross at the other end as Inter fail to penetrate...

Catania slowly build up an attack but the final delivery fails to trouble the Inter defence.

First real chance of the game! Milito pounces on some defensive dallying from Catania, whips in a cross and a free Forlan at the far post takes it on the volley first time. Carrizo is equal to it and pulls off a good save!

Forlan gets a decent left-footed strike off from outside the area and it dips nastily in front of Carrizo, who gets his hands behind it and scoops the ball away.

Well anticipated by Julio Cesar who rushes out and gathers as Catania try to play a quick through ball in.

Catania now get their first corner of the game as Nagatomo cuts Gomez short in his tracks. Inter clear the delivery...

Palombo sends a free-kick from distance well over...

Two corners in quick succession which Catania clear, but it ends with Forlan getting a shot in on target from 25 yards. A low grass cutter which doesn't cause Carrizo too many problems.

First corner of the game goes Inter's way...

Samuel escapes what looked like a certain booking as he gives away a free-kick with a challenge so late on Bergessio I thought he was a London bus... Set piece wasted by Catania.

Forlan with a terrible effort from almost 30 yards. Zanetti started a great attack from his own half, winning the ball and feeding the striker but Forlan's effort was high and wide.

Catania just testing Inter out a bit as Palombo loses the ball, allowing Motta to get a cross in which Cambiass heads away.

Both sides getting forward inside the opening two minutes... Nagatomo with a run down the right for Inter and Barrientos with a surge forward for Catania. Wesley Sneijder, incidentally, on the bench for Inter tonight...
