Reason for Inter vs Porto Predictions
Inter is 15 points adrift of runaway Serie A leaders Napoli but deserved credit for fighting their way up to second place after a stuttering start. Since returning from the World Cup break, they have won five and lost just one of eight league games, as well as battling through three rounds of Coppa Italia. Overall this term, their home record in Italy’s top flight reads ten wins from 12 outings, with only six goals conceded in those matches. In this competition, Simone Inzaghi’s side found Bayern too hot to handle in a 2-0 San Siro defeat first up. The Nerazzurri recovered from that setback to win 2-0 away to Viktoria Plzen and then edged out Barcelona 1-0 at this venue. A 3-3 draw at Camp Nou put Inter in pole position to qualify, and a 4-0 thumping of Viktoria here confirmed their progress. Edin Dzeko has still been doing the business at the age of 36, and Inzaghi will be glad to have Romelu Lukaku back fit from injury problems. Lautaro Martinez enjoys the field, and when he receives the ball and goes toward the goal, the opponent has issues because he passes through the defense like a fast train. Hakan Calhanoglu found the right role in the team, he moves great in the middle of the field, and it isn’t easy to take the ball away from this guy.
Porto capitalized on Atletico Madrid flopping in fourth place to secure the top spot in Group B. The Dragons actually lost 2-1 away to Los Colchoneros in Spain first up and were odds-on for an early exit following a bizarre 4-0 drubbing by Club Brugge in Portugal. However, Sergio Conceicao’s side fought back from that nightmare result in fantastic fashion by rattling off four straight victories. Bayer Leverkusen was beaten 2-0 at Estadio do Dragao before a superb 3-0 success in Germany. Revenge over Brugge was sweet and emphatic, as Porto reversed the 4-0 scoreline when visiting Belgium. Atletico was still fighting for a Europa League spot on Matchday 6, but the Dragons denied them even that consolation with a 2-1 home victory. Toni Martinez enjoys the field, and when he receives the ball and goes toward the goal, the opponent has problems because he passes through the defense like a fast train. Marko Grujic plays great and does not allow the opponent to play in the middle of the field.
Conclusion
It is going to be an exciting clash, as Porto is not without a chance of remaining undefeated. However, we believe Inter should meet the expectations and deliver a win.
The prediction for this match is over 2.5 goals. We hope that football fans will enjoy this match.
