Match Result Prediction: Inter Milan to Win

Our first Inter Milan vs Benfica prediction is a win for Inter Milan. Despite losing 0-1 the last time out in a domestic clash with Monza, Inter should come stronger for the second leg of the ULC quarterfinals. They are our favourite to win the second leg and open a 3-0 goal aggregate at full-time.

First Team to Score Prediction: Inter Milan to Score First

In our second Inter Milan vs Benfica prediction, we are backing the hosts to open the lead. Inter Milan must aim to get on the front foot when they host Benfica on Wednesday 19th April 2023. The desire to widen the 0-2 victory in the first leg and remain unassailable is why we think with a good plan from the head coach, Simone Inzaghi, Inter Milan can open the lead in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-o to Inter Milan

The final Inter Milan vs Benfica prediction is a correct score of 1-0 for Inter Milan. Benfica knows it will be hard to overturn a 2-0 defeat in the first leg of this trip to San Siro, so we expect a more defensive approach from the Portuguese side.We expect massive support for Inter at San Siro and a narrow win of 1-0 in favour of the Nerazzuris looks probable.

Inter Milan vs Benfica Preview

Inter Milan

Inter Milan enjoys a 2-0 lead from the reverse fixture, so this second leg of the UCL quarterfinals should be the icing on the cake for the hosts when they host Benfica at San Siro on Wednesday, 19th April 2023. Inter Milan lost 0-1 in the domestic league against Monza ahead of this clash. If the performance against Monza is to go back, Inter Milan should do better to contain Benefica that will be more determined to progress to the next round of the competition.

Milan will likely deploy Martinez and Dzeko in the final third, noting that the host coach is likely to employ a a 3-5-2 formation in this game.

Benfica

Benefica has to fill a 2-0 goal deficit from a 2-nil defeat in the first leg to have any chance of progressing. The visitors seem to be on a downward trend, noting that they lost all their last three games, two in the domestic league and the defeat from the reverse leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals. Benfica has been offensively poor, scoring just once in the last three and conceding a total of five goals in that period.

Benfica will likely use a 4-2-3-1 formation in this trip with Mario, Silva and Aursenes in the forward positions and Ramos as the lone striker.
