FC Porto hopes to build on their excellent performances so far.

FC Porto has gone 22 games without losing any of them. However, their most recent loss came at the hands of Benfica in October, because of a number of injury concerns they had then.

They defeated Sporting CP at that time to win the Taca da Liga, so they will be confident about securing a lead in the first leg.

Head-to-head comparison.

Inter Milan’s team news.

Here, Simone Inzaghi’s only injury concern is with Joaquin Correa.

Andre Onana, Lautaro Martinez, and Milan Skrinar were among the key players that Inzaghi rested for Inter’s victory over Udinese, but they will start this match against Porto.

FC Porto’s team news.

There are numerous injuries that coach Sergio Conceicao must deal with right now.

The Portuguese team is without Francisco Meixedo, Gabriel Veron, Fabio Cardoso, and Evanilson.

All of Matheus Uribe, Galeno, Otavio, and Toni Martinez are questionable; the latter was forced to leave the team late on Saturday.

Expert’s opinion

Two of Europe’s tightest backguards facing off should surely result in a tightly contested match, and Porto have shown grit and will to overcome adversity throughout their injury crisis.

Yet at the San Siro fortress, where Inzaghi’s team can dismantle the resolute Dragons defense and snap their visitors’ unbeaten record.

Inter Milan will take a slim lead to Portugal for the second leg and Conceicao’s mounting fitness problems may finally work against him.

Conclusion

In Milan, this matchup ought to be fiercely contested, and Inter might just beat Porto.
