Inter Milan vs Bayern Munich Preview and Team News

Inter Milan Team News

Inter Milan are flying high after beating Bayern Munich 2-1 in the first leg of this quarterfinal encounter in the UEFA Champions League. This will also give them confidence in their ability to do well in the second leg, which will be played at home. 

Usually resorting to a 3-5-2 formation, Inter knocked the wind out of Bayern’s sails and will try to do the same in Wednesday’s match.

Denzel Dumfries and Piotr Zieliński will not be available for selection due to muscle and shin injuries. Valentin Carboni is a long-term absentee with an ACL issue. 

This has, on the plus side, given Inter a settled look, and it’s helped them gel well. The squad are unbeaten in their last five matches, and their attackers, led by Lautaro Martinez, will be hoping for another fine showing against the guests.

Former Man United and Arsenal attacking midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan will have a big say in this game, as he’ll be the one dictating the pace and rhythm.

He’ll hold the controls, so to speak, and the rest of his teammates need to give him the ball as much as possible. The Armenian has the ability to pull strings in the centre of the park, and will be necessary against Bayern.

Bayern Munich Team News

To say that Bayern Munich are disappointed with their home defeat to Inter Milan in the first leg is an understatement. 

Vincent Kompany’s men, who are known for their structural approach to gameplay, will need to regroup as quickly as possible and hunt Inter down. 

The visiting side know that playing at San Siro is not an easy task, but they’ll have to pull their magic wand to make it to the next round of this continental competition.

Nonetheless, Kompany has many injuries to deal with this Wednesday, including those of Dayot Upamecano, Hiroki Ito, Jamal Musiala, Kingsley Coman, Alphonso Davies, Manuel Neuer, and Tarek Buchmann. 

All these players have had prominent domestic roles for Bayern, and their absence will be sorely felt. 

As a natural consequence, most of the pressure will fall on former Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane. He’ll need to step up to fulfill his dream of winning the UEFA Champions League.

Inter Milan vs Bayern Munich Prediction

• Pick: Inter Milan to win or draw
• Odds: 1.56 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Inter Milan 1-1 Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich have a slight advantage in this event despite playing away from home, but we still expect Inter Milan to either win or draw. 

The guests have almost always proven they’re hard to beat when hungry for revenge, and the same may hold true this week.

However, if Inter decide to tweak their tactics and focus solely on defending in this meeting, there will be very little the Bayern attackers can do.

Currently, Bayern have lost two out of their last five games, whereas their opponents have been unbeaten in all five. This could end up tilting the match slightly in favour of the hosts, at least when it comes to speaking of momentum.

Inter Milan vs Bayern Munich Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both teams to score
• Odds: 1.57 (22Bet)

Their slender one-goal margin will not be lost on Inter. They will want to increase it and their chances of making the semifinal. 

In order to do so, the hosts may expose their flanks and allow their wingbacks to take up more advanced roles in the final third.

This is where the guests can hit the home team, who are shrewd contestants that won’t show their hand easily. In essence, it might end up becoming a battle between Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram against Bayern’s Harry Kane. 

All the attackers mentioned are among the best in the business and will have critical roles to play in their respective sides’ advancement further in this competition. We expect both teams to score (BTTS) in this match.
