Match Overview

Benfica have never played against Inter Milan in the past, and this might provide them with the surprise element that the Italian side so dread. They are known to hold their own in European competitions but have never quite held their own, and this game may give them the opportunity to showcase to the rest of Europe how well they can be in continental competitions.

Key Highlights

The fact that will severely hamper Inter Milan on Tuesday is that they have not won a single game in their last six attempts, and come into this one on the back of a rather dull drawn encounter against Salernitana in the Serie A. While Benfica lost against FC Porto in the Portuguese Primeira Liga over the weekend, they will feel that they can get the better of their opponents owing to their extremely poor away record in the recent past. 

Injury Report

Nicolas Otamendi is suspended for Benfica while Julian Draxler and Goncalo Guedes will be missing out owing to injuries that they, unfortunately, sustained earlier in the season. For Inter Milan, centre-back Milan Skriniar and midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu will be warming the benches due to injuries.

Prediction

We predict both teams to get on the scoresheet in this game (BTTS). They are both very well-matched with each other and no clear winner appears to jump out at the moment. Both Benfica and Inter Milan have good strikers in their repective sides- Joao Mario and Goncalo Ramos for the home team and Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku for the visitors. This match will see a few goals.
