Why is Milan a safe bet to win?
AC Milan’s attack is gearing up for a special performance. Versus Cremonese and AS Roma, AC’s attack struggled in 1-1 draws.
But in their last match, AC Milan picked it up big time, blasting Lazio 2-0. Bennacer and Hernandez both scored. Versus Lazio, Milan took 10 shots on goal. 3 were on target and they scored with 2-of-3.
AC Milan’s defense played great in the most recent match. AC allowed Lazio to control possession 48% of the time.
But AC forced Lazio to take bad shots. Lazio took 8 shots and 0 were on goal. Hernandez, Kjaer, and Tomori make for a seriously talented backline. Mika Maignan has developed into a decent goalie.

- Hernandez
- Tonali
- Krunic

- Bennacer

Why is Inter Milan a safe bet to win?
Inter’s attack had been okay but not great. But in their last couple of matches, Inter has shown the attack is ready to go after AC.
On May 3, Inter scored 6 goals in a 6-0 road match victory over rival Hellas Verona. Argentina superstar Lautaro Martinez scored 2 goals in the win.
Then in their next match, Inter blasted AS Roma, one of the better teams in Serie A, 2-0 in another impressive road victory. Romelu Lukaku had a goal in that match.
Inter used defense to get to this point. So there’s no reason to believe Inter’s D falls apart in the first leg.
Goalie Andre Onana has 55 saves in 22 starts. Recently, Onana has stepped it up. The Inter keeper has yielded a single goal in the last 5 matches. Lazio is the only team that has scored against Inter’s D in the last 5.
Possible Line-Up
- Onana
- Darmian
- Acerbi
- Bastoni
- Dumfries
- Barella
- Çalhanoglu
- Mkhitaryan
- Dimarco
- Martinez
- Lukaku
Inter Milan’s Last 5
- Win: 0-2 vs. AS Roma
- Win: 0-6 vs. Hellas Verona
- Win: 3-1 vs. Lazio
- Win: 1-0 vs. Juventus
- Win: 0-3 vs. Empoli
Milan vs. Inter Betting Prediction
This match can go either way because it’s one of the great rivalries in club soccer. However, although AC Milan has a shot, Inter is playing out of their minds.
Lautaro Martinez is in terrific form. Not only that, but Romelu Lukaku wants a Champions League victory. Both can play on the pitch at the same time.
If it happens, Inter will pressure AC Milan’s defense all afternoon. Eventually, either Lukaku, Martinez, or someone else well get the ball into the net.
Doing so won’t be easy, but Inter should score a goal victory. Give the designated road team in this the nod.
