The Colchonero must win to, at least, take the series to penalties. For this match, coach Diego Simeone called up Argentineans Rodrigo De Paul, Nahuel Molina, and Ángel Correa, and the first two have a good chance of starting the match. Far away in the fight for the title in the Spanish League – fourth with 55 points, 14 points behind Real Madrid -, the Iberian team is aiming to be crowned in the highest European continental championship and, to do so, it has to beat the last runner-up.
Inter, meanwhile, dominates Serie A and is on its way to the Scudetto because it leads with 75 points and its closest rival is Milan with 59. Lautaro Martínez, captain and star of the team, is part of Simone Inzaghi’s starting line-up for the visit to Atlético de Madrid.
In advance, the favorite to win according to the betting odds is the visitor with a maximum odds of 2.60 against 3.18 for a defeat, i.e. a win for the home team. A draw, which would take the Neroazzurro into the quarterfinals – the draw will be made next Friday – pays up to 3.60.
One of the peculiarities of the event is that a security device with more than 1,200 troops has been set up because it was considered high-risk by the Anti-Violence Commission. This is an unusual operation for Champions League matches and was organized due to the rivalry between both clubs and the possibility of incidents between supporters of both teams.
