JAKARTA Inter Milan will play an away match in the second leg of the last 16 of the 2022/2023 Champion League. The Italian giant will visit FC Porto's headquarters with a narrow advantage in terms of aggregates.
The match between the two teams will take place at Porto headquarters at Do Dragao Stadium, Porto, Portugal, Wednesday, March 15, 2023. The match starts at 03.00 WIB.
In the first leg which took place at Giuseppe Meazza, Inter managed to narrowly lead over their guests. Romelu Lukaku's substitute's single goal forced 10 Porto players to suffer defeat.
However, the Nerazzurri continued their performance after that with unsatisfactory results. Simone Inzaghi's team recorded two defeats and one win in three matches afterward.
On the other hand, failure to break into the Inter goal forced Porto to face a mandatory win situation at this second meeting. However, seeing their performance so far, the deficit of one goal is likely to catch up.
The reason is, apart from winning their last four games to occupy first place in Group B before the winter break, Porto also won 10 games in a row before slipping at the San Siro.
In addition, Sergio Conceicao's team also has an extraordinary home record. This season, they recorded only three defeats when appearing in front of their own supporters at Dragao Stadium.
Interestingly, the team they will be herbal in the morning will have a minus away record. Two defeats from the last three matches all occurred during the trip to each Bologna and Spezia headquarters.
Meskipun Inter telah mengakhiri rekor 22 pertandingan unbeaten mereka di leg pertama, tetapi Porto tercatat sukses melaju dari dua pertandingan babak 16 besar terakhir mereka masing-masing pada tahun 2019 dan 2021.
However, Porto had a memory that was not very good against Inter in this round. They were eliminated from the round of 16 2004/2005 against Inter while trying to defend the title in 2004.
Predictions of the line-up:
Porto (4-2-3-1): Costa; Mario, Pepe, Cardoso, Sanusi; Grujic, Uribe; Franco, Pepe, Galeno; Taremi
Inter Milan (3-5-2): Onana; De Vrij, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Dzeko
