The second legs of the Uefa Champions League Round of 16 matches between Liverpool and Inter and Bayern Munich and Salzburg take place on Tuesday night and BetOlimp nail up their best bets.
Salzburg’s previous nine away games against German opposition have seen a total of 32 goals scored, at an average of 3.6 per game. Given Bayern’s scoring tally in this competition and the fact Salzburg have scored in 10 of their last 11 trips in this competition, we;re backing more goals.
Over 3.5 goals to be scored in this one is our first prediction, while we expect Sane to be amongst them. His fantastic form in Europe – especially at home – suggests he can get in on the act. Given the scoring threat in this Bayern side, we're going with them to coast to a 4-1 win.
The Reds have won all seven of their games in the Champions League this season. They could become just the third team in the history of the European Cup/Champions League to win their opening eight games in a single edition of the tournament. Only Barcelona in 2002-03 and Bayern Munich in 2019-20 have previously completed that feat.
With Liverpool in stellar form and heading into this clash as heavy favourites, it’s little surprise that we're backing them for an eighth straight victory.
Inter Milan have lost four of their previous five away games against English sides in the Champions League. Their only victory in that run came under Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge in the year that the Nerazzurri lifted the trophy.
Liverpool have won each of their three games against Inter Milan in the Champions League without conceding a single goal, which includes their 2-0 success in Milan in the first leg. That was their third win over Milanese opposition this term, having beaten AC home and away in the group stage.
Given Liverpool’s clean sheet streak against Inter and their excellent defensive record, we're backing the Reds to win to nil this week, having kept three clean sheets in four matches.
The Reds have the talents of Mo Salah to fire them to a win at the other end. He has scored eight goals in seven Champions League appearances this term, making it his second-best season in the competition. The Egyptian is scoring every 69 minutes in Europe, so back him to fire Liverpool to a 2-0 win.
Note, odds are correct at the time of writing, but are subject to change.
