Bayern Munich – Latest Team News & Statistics
In the Champions League, Bayern Munich were on target from day one, but in the Bundesliga it took a while for Julian Nagelsmann’s team to get up to speed. From round four to round eight, the reigning champions failed to win a single league game. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich have managed to turn the tide: in the last five Bundesliga games, they scored 19 times and only lost a point against Borussia Dortmund (2-2).
In a seemingly difficult pool with Internazionale, FC Barcelona and Viktoria Pilsen, FC Hollywood soon proved lord and master. Bayern Munich are already sure of group stage wins with ‘five from five’ and only got two goals against. That happened against the Czechs, when the spoils were already well and truly in hand at half-time (2-4). Thus Bayern Munich qualified for the knockout phase of the billion-dollar tournament for the fifteenth time in a row.
Against Internazionale, Nagelsmann will still have to miss several key players. Lucas Hernández, Manuel Neuer and Leroy Sané are unlikely to return from injury until later in November. Neuer is not hugely missed for the time being: stand-in Sven Ulreich has kept seven games so far this season, resulting in four clean sheets.
Inter Milan – Latest Team News & Statistics
After the draw for the group stage was announced, Internazionale knew they had to work hard to secure a ticket to the knockout phase of the Champions League. As expected, the meetings with FC Barcelona proved crucial. The Italians won 1-0 at home and a week later Barcelona won 3-3 in a crazy game. As a result, Simone Inzaghi’s team qualified for the eighth finals for the second time in a row. In that last year, the curtain fell against later finalist Liverpool.
In Serie A, Internazionale are already well behind leaders SSC Napoli, who are still unbeaten after 12 matches. The difference is already eight points. Last Saturday, however, Milan did deal with low-flyer Sampdoria (3-0). Of all teams in the top eight, they have so far conceded the most goals. The tally already stands at 17.
Like Bayern Munich, Internazionale is on a strong run. In the past seven games, it only lost points in Catalonia. With the return of Romelu Lukaku, Inzaghi is in a luxury position, because in addition to the Belgian, he also has Lautaro Martínez and Edin Džeko up front. The Argentine is top scorer in Serie A on behalf of Internazionale, the Bosnian is so in the European side with three goals.
Bayern Munich – Inter Milan Previous encounters
Bayern Munich and Internazionale met in the opening round of the Champions League 2022/23 in Milan. The visitors aimed 11 times between the posts, against two accurate shots from the Italians. That superiority resulted in a 0-2 victory for the Germans. Sané opened the scoring midway through the first half, after which Danilo D’Ambrosio sealed Inter’s fate with an own goal. In 2010, the two teams met in the Champions League final. Led by José Mourinho, the Italians pulled out the victor through two goals from Diego Milito.
Betting on Bayern Munich – Inter Milan: Tip & Quote
Bayern Munich will be the group winner either way and Inter Milan the number two. That makes the duel between the two teams more or less a formality. Salient detail: five days after the Munich game, Internazionale will take on Juventus, an important rival in Serie A. Based on that, we dare to predict that the Italians will partly save their strength, also because the Champions League game is an away match.
Bayern Munich already won in Milan by two goals difference and seem to have found the flow. We think the Germans will again win comfortably against Internazionale, who have already had to concede quite a few goals this season. This time, we are casting that prediction in a Handicap bet, which can earn you more than twice your stake at bookmaker Bet365.
