Inter Milan vs Bayern Munich Predictions

• Bayern lost just two of their last 31 Champions League games.
• Bayern won each of the last three competitive away H2Hs.
• All three of Inter’s defeats since February also saw both teams score.

The pick of the action

Arguably the pick of Wednesday night’s Champions League action takes place at the San Siro as Italian heavyweights and German champions Inter Milan and Bayern Munich come head-to-head for the first time in this competition since 2011.

The away side on the day won both legs of the round of 16 clash when these sides last met in competitive action as Inter Milan eventually progressed on away goals. However, it is the visitors who enter this clash in stronger form as they are yet to be defeated this season as they’ve hit an astonishing 17 goals in just five league games.

On the other hand, Inter Milan enter this in wobbling form with two defeats across their last three games representing their first defeats since April! That’s not to mention the fact that they now must face a rampant Bayern Munich side that won their first five group stage games last season as they cruised into the knockout rounds with minimum fuss.

German efficiency could win the day

The one thing that the Nerazzuri have going for them is the fact that none of the last 20 sides to face them have stopped them from scoring.

Breaching the backline of a free-flowing Bayern Munich shouldn’t be too big of an ask for the likes of Martinez and Correa, yet we predict that Bayern will simply have too much for them and as such will outscore their Italian hosts.

As for the correct score, a modest 2-1 win for Bayern Munich could be the smart play here as both sides could throw caution to the wind in search of a strong start to the new European campaign.
