Get predictions, team news and betting tips for the Champions League quarter-final second leg between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich on Wednesday 16th April (8pm BST).
Tip 1
Inter have established themselves as the defensive masters in Europe this season, finishing 4th in the group phase and doing so by only conceding a single goal, with seven clean sheets from eight matches.
They took the lead twice last week in Munich and despite Bayern’s lapse in concentration which allowed Davide Frattesi’s late winner, I Nerrazurri were worthy of the advantage that they’ve taken back to the San Siro.
On the other side of the coin we have Bayern Munich, who’ve lost seven games this season, which is a lot for a giant such as themselves.
More concerningly, four of these have come away from the Allianz Arena, and four have been staged in this very competition, with defeats on the road to Aston Villa, Barcelona and Feyenoord providing Inter with the perfect blueprint for winning this match and progressing to the semi-finals.

Tip 2
Martinez provided Inter with the opening goal of last Tuesday’s first leg – his 20th goal of the campaign and his seventh Champions League strike.
He now has a goal in each of his last four UCL matches, including a hat-trick on home soil against Monaco at the end of January.
Considering that the visitors have just two clean sheets from their last nine matches, I believe Lautaro Martinez is the man to fire Inter Milan into the last four with another goal on Wednesday.

Internazionale stretched their unbeaten run to 12 on Saturday with a 3-1 win over Cagliari – a result which has them three points clear of Napoli at the top of the Serie A standings.
Simone Inzaghi has both Mehdi Taremi and Kristjan Asllani at his disposal once again after their respective injury and suspension have both passed. He is still, however, unable to call upon Denzel Dumfries or Piotr Zielinski, who remain sidelined by injuries.
Inter Milan Predicted XI: Sommer; Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Thuram.
Bayern’s entertaining 2-2 draw with Dortmund last weekend didn’t have any major ramifications in the Bundesliga title race as Vincent Kompany’s side still have a six point advantage over reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen after 29 fixtures.
The visitors will have to make do without Jamal Musiala for the remainder of the campaign, and also have a number of defensive absentees at the moment, with Manuel Neuer, Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano and Hiroki Ito all injured.
Bayern Munich Predicted XI: Urbig; Laimer, Dier, Kim, Stanisic; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Guerreiro, Sane; Kane.
