Inter Milan Prediction
Inter Milan did what was necessary in the first leg away from home at Frankfurt as they held the German club to a 0-0 draw at the Commerzbank-Arena, and now the Italian club hold home advantage in this 2nd leg in Milan with the tie evenly poised at 0-0.
Inter Milan have a few injuries and suspensions to deal with prior to this return leg as both Asamoah and Martinez are suspended while midfielders Brozovic and Nainggolan are both rated as doubtful to be fit for this clash.
However, the hosts still possess the likes of Perisic, Candreva and Politano while striker Keita ios expected to lead the line as forward Icardi remains out of favour with manager Luciano Spalletti. Inter Milan are currently enjoying a pretty solid spell of form right now as the hosts have lost just one out of their last eight matches in all competitions.
The one game at home so far for Inter Milan in the Europa League ended with a 4-0 romp over Rapid Vienna, and having remained unbeaten at home during the group stages of the Champions League with a win over Tottenham and draws with Barcelona and PSV, the hosts are a force to be reckoned with at this level.
- Inter Milan have lost just 1 of their last 8 matches in all competitions
- Inter Milan have lost just 2 of their last 16 home ties in the Europa League
- Eintracht Frankfurt are unbeaten in their last 11 matches in all competitions
Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction
Eintracht Frankfurt are also in solid form at the moment as the visitors are unbeaten in their last 11 matches in all competitions, including winning four of their last five with wins recorded against Shakhtar Donetsk in the Europa League and Bundesliga wins against Hannover, Hoffenheim and Fortuna Dusseldorf, the latter being a 3-0 win away from home.
The visitors have been a revelation in the German top flight this season as they sit in 5th place and are in line for another Europa League appearance at the very least, but with just three points separating them from 4th placed Borussia Moenchengladbach and a possible Champions League spot, the future looks fairly bright for Eintracht Frankfurt.
Frankfurt have also won nine of their last 13 matches overall in the Europa League, as well as four of their last six away from home ( 5 of the 6 seeing both teams score), and with the likes of in-form forwards Jovic (15 goals) and Haller (14 goals) up front, the visitors also pose a serious goal threat here too.
Betting Tips Verdict
It’s hard to predict an outright winner here but we should see both teams score here.
