Prediction: 1-1
Benfica
Inter will be looking to defend their two-goal lead in the tie with Benfica when the two sides face each other at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Wednesday evening. The Nerazzurri proved their worth in the first leg, and, as a result, they are with one foot in the Champions League semis. Inter failed to turn their dominance into goals in a shocking 1-0 loss to Monza at the weekend, but they are still seen as favourites to beat Benfica in front of home fans. Both Dalbert and Milan Skriniar are injured for the hosts.
Meanwhile, the Eagles aim to recover from a surprising 1-0 loss to Chaves, but beating Inter in Milano is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the horizon, and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The visitors will be without Draxler and Bah in the reverse fixture, while Serbia midfielder Mihailo Ristic is a major doubt.
