Porto vs Inter Prediction: The opponents have about equal chances to win

The first match between Inter Milan and Porto ended 1:0 in favor of the Italians. Such a result leaves both teams a chance to get into the quarterfinals of the Champions League. As for the line, the bookmakers did not identify a favorite in the match, they believe that the opponents have about equal chances to win.

Porto

After losing to Inter, the team lost in the Portuguese championship to Gil Vicente with a score of 1:2 and won against Chaves and Estoril; both wins were productive, 3:1 and 3:2. Porto is in second place in the Portuguese championship, with eight points less than Benfica. It will not be easy for the Dragons to fight for the Portuguese championship title; it is too big a gap, given the Lisbon statistics and the Portuguese championship level. At the same time, the second place can also be lost because Braga is only two points behind Porto. In the Champions League group stage, Porto won Group B ahead of Brugge, Bayer, and Atletico.

Inter

The team finished second in Group C, behind Bayern, but ahead of Barcelona and Victoria. In general, we note that the Italians were lucky with the lot at the level of the Champions League round of 16. Porto is not the most terrible opponent at this stage, and the first match between the opponents was confirmed 100%. They beat their opponent in possession, shots, and xG index. It should also be noted that the teams scored more than three goals, but the game ended 1:0. Inter has a problematic situation in Serie A. The title has definitely gone, the gap from Napoli is equal to 18 points, and it cannot be won in the remaining time. In turn, the density of teams from second place to fifth is three points, i.e., there is no guarantee that the team at the end of the championship will guarantee a place in the top 4.
