Real Madrid vs Inter Preview
Real Madrid enter this Champions League fixture in formidable home form, having won four of their last five matches to sit third in La Liga. José Mourinho faces a genuine midfield crisis, however, with Arda Güler, Eduardo Camavinga, and Bernardo Silva all suspended. Aurélien Tchouaméni could return to bolster the engine room, though his match fitness remains a question mark after a spell on the sidelines.
Inter arrive at the Bernabéu in outstanding shape, boasting five consecutive victories across all competitions from their eighth-placed Champions League standing. That run of form suggests Simone Inzaghi's side are peaking at precisely the right moment. Still, history offers a stark warning: the Nerazzurri have lost all four recent meetings against Real Madrid, a record that will weigh heavily on their confidence despite their current momentum.
The double chance 1X selection leans heavily on Real Madrid's commanding head-to-head record against Inter. Los Blancos have won all four recent meetings, including a 3-2 victory at the Bernabéu and consecutive clean sheets in the 2021 encounters. That historical dominance at this venue makes backing the home side or the draw a sensible route, with the home win priced at 1.62.
José Mourinho must cope without Arda Güler, Eduardo Camavinga, and Bernardo Silva through suspension, a genuine midfield headache. Aurélien Tchouaméni could feature if given preparatory minutes against Real Betis beforehand. Inter, meanwhile, arrive on a perfect five-match winning run and occupy eighth in the league stage standings, so dismissing them entirely would be unwise.
Both sides boast potent attacking records, yet Real Madrid's structural superiority in this fixture historically tilts the balance. The draw at 4.33 provides additional cover should Inter's fine form translate into a stubborn defensive display. Backing over 2.5 goals at 1.50 also merits consideration given the high-scoring nature of previous clashes between these two sides.
