FC Porto vs Inter Milan Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, 14 March 2023.
The reigning Portuguese Primera Liga champions are trailing 8 points behind Benfica in the standings this season. Porto’s impressive run is yet to match the exceptional form of Benfica this time.
But when it comes to European Competitions, Porto have been better and had displayed the same this season too. They have advanced it to the knockouts and their rivals are the previous season Serie A runner-ups, Inter Milan.
The first leg at Milan’s home turf ended in a 1-0 victory for them. Thus, Porto will be having a tough task on Tuesday when they play host to Inter at Estadio do Dragao.
They have met six times in the past and five of them were Champions League fixtures. Inter was unbeaten in five of those six matches and have won four, including the first leg win.
However, FC Porto have managed to remain unbeaten in their two head to head clashes against Inter Milan at this venue.
FC Porto have been recording impressive outcomes at home for the past many months. In Champions League match-ups, they have managed to seal a victory over teams like Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan was winless in the past three road trips. All those fixtures were from Serie A. Going on, the team recorded win, draw and lose one apiece in their three group stage matches on the road this season.
Porto’s h2h form against Inter at this venue looks decent. But when it comes to the overall stats, Inter won the most including the first leg victory. Thus, picking up a winner from these two seems to be a tough task here.
They both have been netting in goals at a good rate of late. This match could have three or more goals considering the competitive capability of this match. In addition, three of their total six h2h clashes had goals over 2.5 ft.
We don’t expect this to be a one-sided affair. The main reason for that is the defensive stats of both sides this UCL season. Porto leaked 5 goals in their three home matches while Inter allowed five in their three road trips.
Inter is likely to advance it into the quarters considering the recent stats of both. But we are not backing them to seal a win here as both the sides are having an equally competitive display at respective patches.
Going on, we like to place the over 2.5 goals bet at 1.93 odds as the main betting pick here. For the second bet, we like to place the both teams to score option at 1.80 odds.
