Replay for the quarter-finals of the Champions League between Inter and Benfica at the Giuseppe Meazza. In the first match 2-0, in the event of a Benfica victory with a 2-goal difference, extra time will follow and, if necessary, the penalty shootout.
In the first match, Inter, armed with its experience and excellent tactics, prevailed 2-0 and took a huge step towards qualifying for the semi-finals of the competition. She limited the hosts' attacking play and was highly effective in the replay scoring twice to shape the final result.
But in the league it is not doing as well, last Saturday after a bad performance it was defeated at home by Monza 1-0 and now having only one point in the last 5 matches it has fallen back to 5th place with 51 points putting its participation in jeopardy in the groups of the next Champions League.
Benfica was unexpectedly bad in the first match in Lisbon, they were justly defeated 2-0 and now they are looking for a small miracle to be the one to qualify for the 4th round of the tournament. He paid for the fact that offensively he was trapped in the very good defensive behavior of the Italians, defensively he had several gaps and fatally conceding two goals he lost the match.
At the same time, in the league it seems to have a decline in its performance, on Saturday it was defeated away from home by Chavez 1-0 with a goal conceded in stoppage time. This was their second defeat in a row, they were left on 71 points and now saw 2nd placed Porto reduce the gap between them to 4 points.
Inter got a great result in the first match, but their image lately is not good at all. Benfica also in the last week is not a good image, they received 3 defeats in as many matches but their quality is a given and today they have nothing to lose, they will go for their game and whatever comes out.
Suggestion: Inter – Benfica X2 & GG with 3.10 odds
