14th March 2023 – 21:00, Estádio do Dragão, Porto
Porto and Inter will face each other in the Champions League eighth-finals second-leg match on Tuesday evening. The hosts aim to turn around the result, while the away side looks forward to returning home undefeated.
Porto Preview & Team News
Porto will be looking for a repeat result of the 3-2 Primeira Liga victory versus Estoril. That win gave them a boost of confidence ahead of this clash and a battle to stay in the top two of the Portuguese top flight. It’s been all too rare in recent games where Porto has shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Porto has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous six matches, giving up seven goals during that time. After a narrow defeat in Milano, the Dragons need to win this match in 90 minutes. Evanilson (Muscle Injury), Galeno (Muscle Injury), and Gabriel Veron (Ankle Injury) won’t be able to feature for Porto gaffer Sérgio Conceição. Otávio cannot play in this game through suspension.
Inter Preview & Team News
Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Spezia in Serie A action, Inter will be aiming to make amends here. A bad thing for Nerazzurri is that they didn’t rest their main players, and still, they lost that match. A run of resolute performances from the Inter defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their past six clashes overall. In that time, the number of goals they scored themselves is 7. Inter manager Simone Inzaghi has not got a full squad to pick from. Dalbert (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Milan Skriniar (Lumbago) will not be playing here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
We expect another close game since both teams have decent chances of progressing to the quarter-finals. It is never easy to play at Estadio do Dragao, and we think Porto might take this game to extra time, at least.
Goals Market Prediction
Porto’s defense has been pretty leaky recently, while their attacking potential is quite significant. That’s why we believe both teams will manage to find the back of the opponent’s net in this encounter.
