Looking to build on a 2-0 win in the first leg, Inter Milan welcome Feyenoord to the San Siro for the second leg of their Champions League last 16 tie, and we’ve got the latest team news and lineups included in our preview.

Inter Milan vs Feyenoord Preview 1k5f2k

Boasting a comfortable two-goal lead after the first leg in Rotterdam, Inter Milan go head-to-head with Feyenoord at the San Siro in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie on Tuesday evening.

Goals from Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez on either side of the half time break ensured a 2-0 victory for Simone Inzaghi’s side at De Kuip last week, and they have since followed that up with a 3-2 comeback win over Monza in Serie A.

I Nerazzurri are now unbeaten in five across all competitions and are a point clear at the top of the Italian top-flight.

As for the 16-time Eredivisie champions, managed by former Arsenal, Manchester United and Barcelona striker Robin van Persie, they have won just one of their last five across all competitions and are fifth in the league.

They were due to play Groningen at home on Saturday, but the Dutch Football Association allowed the fixture to be postponed so that De club aan de Maas could focus solely on the second leg against Inter.

Of course, Feyenoord have already overcome one team from Milan in the Champions League this term, defeating AC Milan 2-1 on aggregate in the knockout round play-offs, but can they come from behind to beat another?

The UK’s best football betting sites don’t seem to think so, as they rate the Dutch outfit at around 7/1 to win in regular time and have them at a whopping 28/1 to qualify for the quarter-finals.

Polish midfielder Piotr Zielinski was forced off with a calf injury in the win over Monza, and reports suggest that the 30-year-old will spend at least a month on the sidelines. Matteo Darmian, Federico Dimarco and Nicola Zalewski are also out.

There had been doubts over the fitness of star forward and club captain Martinez, but the Argentine was spotted in training on Monday, therefore he should be in contention to feature at the San Siro.

As for the visitors, they are in the midst of an injury crisis, with all of Justin Bijlow, Quilindschy Hartman, In-Beom Hwang, Jordan Lotomba, Antoni Milambo, Ramiz Zerrouki, Quinten Timber, Calvin Stengs, Bart Nieuwkoop, Igor Paixao, Oussama Targhalline and Chris-Kevin Nadje missing out on the trip to Milan.

Youngster Givairo Read is available after missing the first leg through suspension, while Ibrahim Osman’s accumulation of five yellow cards means he’s ruled out of the second leg.

Inter Milan vs Feyenoord Prediction 214c4l

The best betting sites in the UK heavily favour Inter to prevail in Tuesday’s second leg at around 4/11, while a draw is priced at 17/4 and, as previously mentioned, a win for Feyenoord is rated at around 7/1.

Unsurprisingly, given recent form, the result in the first leg and the visitors’ lengthy absentee list, we at SportsCasting agree with the bookmakers and are predicting that the hosts will comfortably advance to the quarter-finals.

Prediction: Inter Milan 3-0 Feyenoord (5-0 aggregate)
