Inter v Bayern Munich match preview

Davide Frattesi’s late goal in Munich last week means that 2010 Champions League winners Inter Milan head into the second leg of their quarter-final with a narrow, but crucial, 2-1 lead.

Inter have won 21 of 23 knockout matches while holding a first-leg lead so Vincent Kompany’s men are up against it.

Bayern do have a stellar record in Milan though, having beaten Inter on their own turf on all four visits. Can Harry Kane and co repeat the dose on Wednesday night?

Inter v Bayern Munich team news

Inter have no major fitness concerns aside from the long-term absences of Denzel Dumfries and Piotr Zielinski, so in-form attackers Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram look set to continue their partnership. They combined for a stunning goal in Munich last week.

Bayern are without Jamal Musiala, who is out for the season, so veteran Thomas Muller could start behind Kane. If he does feature, Muller will move level with Lionel Messi on 163 Champions League appearances – with only Iker Casillas and Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of him.

Inter v Bayern Munich expected line-ups

Inter: Sommer; Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Thuram

Bayern Munich: Urbig; Laimer, Dier, Kim, Stanisic; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Muller, Sane; Kane

Prediction

Inter only conceded once in eight games in the league phase and will be a tough nut to crack. Don’t bet against them playing for, and getting, a 0-0 draw that would see them through.

Inter 0-0 Bayern
