We predict Atletico Madrid to win 1-0 in regular time. Inter may have won their last 13 matches across all competitions, but they are likely to fall short against Atletico because the La Liga side are stronger at home, with 18 wins in their last 20 home matches across all competitions. This draw is likely to be dragged into extra time, and a penalty shootout is also likely.
There’s a decent chance Atletico Madrid vs Inter Milan will end with under 2.5 goals. The reverse fixture did not only end with under 2.5 goals; five of Inter’s and Atletico’s last ten matches ended the same.
Atletico Madrid have been inconsistent for a long time, and that’s due to injury issues. Antoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata had missed some matches through injuries, and the former is likely to sit out the second leg against Inter with a knock. They won only three of their last ten matches across all competitions, and lost the first leg 1-0 to Inter in Italy.
Inter Milan are on a roll, having won 13 matches on a bounce. They head into this game in high spirits, and will want to advance to the latter stage of the Champions League. Inter Milan are currently at the top of Serie A standings, thanks to their rigid defence.
