Inter will win or draw
Inter will win or draw
Benfica leads the title race with a margin of 7 points to the nearest chaser. Roger Schmidt’s team is doing great this season not only in the national championship, but also in the Champions League. In the group stage of the tournament, they finished 1st in a quartet with PSG, Juventus and Maccabi. And at the stage of the 1/8 finals, she hardly noticed any resistance in the match against Brugge (2:0, 5:1). A characteristic feature of the Eagles in the current edition of the prestigious European tournament is very effective pressure. The 1st place in terms of the number of hits of possession (18) and goals (5) as a result, scored within 40 meters of the opponent’s goal, testifies to this eloquently.
Inter recently lost form in Serie A, which has already cost them a place in the Champions League zone. In the last 4 rounds, Simone Inzaghi’s team has no taste of victory and the management has started an active search for a new mentor.
It is worth noting that the failed Nerazzurri series has nothing to do with the loss of quality in the team’s game. She lacks composure at times, but in many ways the outcome was affected by bad luck.
With 10.6 xg created, Inter scored only 2 goals, an obscenely low number and cause concern on the eve of the most important game against Benfica.
I suspect that before such an important match, Inter players will be able to increase their concentration, which will allow them to finally break the black streak with low use of created opportunities. I don’t think the Nerazzurri will lose to their opponent.
