Why is Inter Milan a safe bet to win?

In the first leg, Inter’s ability to counter should have led to more than a 2-goal to 0 victory. Not only did Inter take 5 shots on goal, but they took 16 total shots, compared to AC Milan’s 13.

By default, Inter is the better team. The second choice to win the Champions League after Manchester City, Internazionale is on a 7-match winning streak. There’s no reason to believe Inter doesn’t keep the streak alive on Tuesday.

Possible Line-Up

  • Onana
  • Darmian
  • Acerbi
  • Bastoni
  • Dumfries
  • Barella
  • Çalhanoglu
  • Mkhitaryan
  • Dimarco
  • Martinez

Inter Milan’s Last 5

  • Win: 4-2 vs. Sassuolo
  • Win: 0-2 vs. Milan

  • Win: 0-6 vs. Hellas Verona
  • Win: 3-1 vs. Lazio

Why is Milan a safe bet to win?

Although AC Milan is on a 2-match losing streak, the designated road squad in this has their backs up against the wall. A team like AC Milan often responds when their backs are against the wall.

On Tuesday, AC will have to be more aggressive. Although it could backfire, Inter has a 2 goals lead. So, as long as Inter doesn’t allow 2 goals, they won’t care about losing straight up, which could open the door for Milan to get the win.

Possible Line-Up

  • Maignan
  • Calabria
  • Kjaer
  • Tomori
  • Hernandez
  • Tonali
  • Krunic
  • Saelemaekers
  • Bennacer
  • Diaz
  • Giroud

Milan vs. Inter Betting Prediction

There’s some validity to the suggestion Inter will play it safe in the second leg. When a team gets a commanding 2 goals to 0 aggregate lead, the team with the lead has a tendency to pull back the attack. However, this is a rivalry game, which means Inter won’t want to play it safe.

Also, Inter may not have a choice but to counter in this match. AC Milan must attack. If they do not, their chances of making it to the UEFA Champions League Final is non-existent.

Milan must push the pace. If they do, Inter is too talented to not counter. Dzeko, Dumfries, Lukaku when he enters the game, Dimarco, and others will have opportunities to put Inter ahead.

AC Milan had a magical Champions League run, but it ends in a second straight defeat. Inter takes the second leg by at least a goal.
