In the first leg, Inter Milan defeated Bayern 2-1 at home with goals from Lautaro Martinez and Davide Frattesi. Martinez has been in excellent form, scoring in his recent Champions League and Serie A matches. He is favored to score again at +180 odds. Marcus Thuram, who has scored in previous Champions League matches and leads Inter in domestic goals, is at +210 to score. Inter Milan`s strong defense has been a key factor this season, conceding only once in the Champions League group stage and twice in the knockout rounds. They have also maintained a solid defensive record in Serie A, with only 32 goals conceded in 31 games and just one home defeat.
Bayern Munich faces significant challenges with a lengthy injury list, impacting their comeback chances. Key players Jamal Musiala, Dayot Upamecano, Alphonso Davies, and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer are unavailable for this match. This puts increased pressure on Harry Kane, Bayern`s top scorer in both the Bundesliga and Champions League. Kane, with scoring odds at +120, scored multiple goals in the previous Champions League round and has been finding the net in Bundesliga games. Thomas Muller, who scored in the first leg against Inter, is expected to start for Bayern under coach Vincent Kompany. His odds to score are +380.
