Atletico Madrid v Inter Milan

Atletico Madrid vs Inter Milan Preview

Despite holding home advantage when they return to the more familiar surroundings of their Estádio Cívitas Metropolitano for Wednesday night's 2nd leg of their Round of 16 Champions League tie with Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid face a tough evening at the office against the current Serie A league leaders along with having to overturn a 1-0 deficit following defeat in the 1st leg in Milan towards the end of February.

To make matters worse, Atletico Madrid are currently experiencing a decline in form and results as Diego Simeone's side have managed to capture just two wins from their last nine games overall in all competitions which consist of domestic La Liga wins against Las Palmas and Real Betis, but the hosts have also slipped to five defeats as well within this period.

Atletico Madrid had previously strung together an impressive five-match winning streak in all competitions which included a 4-2 win in extra-time against arch rivals Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey but recent results suggest the straight win markets should be avoided here on Wednesday night!

Instead, the goals market looks the most appealing and sensible option as Atletico Madrid have scored in 19 of their last 20 home games in all competitions.

Inter Milan's winning momentum continued on the weekend in the Italian top flight when the league leaders registered a valuable 1-0 win away from home at Bologna to make it an excellent 13 wins on the trot in all competitions which the visitors will be hoping will set them up nicely for a positive result in Madrid on Wednesday night as the visitors look to progress through to the quarter-final stage of this competition.

Nevertheless, this upcoming trip to Madrid on Wednesday night will be far from easy for Simone Inzaghi's side as they know their hosts boast extremely solid form at their Estádio Cívitas Metropolitano but having scored in each of their last 17 games in all competitions, Inter Milan look set to at least hit the back of the net here in this return leg.

Inter Milan also possess an enviable unbeaten record away from home in all competitions as well as the Italian outfit are unbeaten in their last 20 outings on the road, with their last defeat on their travels being a 1-0 loss at Manchester City in the Champions League back in June of last year.

Atletico Madrid v Inter Milan Verdict

Both Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan have produced goals on a regular basis in their respective games in all competitions and with Atletico Madrid now having to press forward in order to overturn the 1-0 deficit in this 2nd leg, both sides look set to score in what could be a very interesting return leg in Madrid.
