Juventus vs Inter Predictions and Betting Tips
The second leg of the first semifinals of the Coppa Italia is scheduled for Tuesday as Juventus welcome inter to the Allianz Stadium. Following a highly-entertaining first leg, we expect to see even more fireworks this Tuesday. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.
Juventus emerged 2-1 winner in the first leg played just about a week ago at the San Siro. Lautaro Martinez had initially put the home side in front, but a Ronaldo penalty quickly cancelled out his goal. About 10 minutes to the end of the first half, Ronaldo netted his brace to complete the comeback. No further goals were scored in the first half as the Bianconeri recorded a brilliant comeback victory.
All eyes laser-focused on the Allianz Stadium
Juventus head into this game with a vital lead and will be keen on preserving that one-goal advantage. That victory at Milan seems to have spurred them on as they easily go past Roma in the Serie A last Saturday. Ronaldo, with his 300th goal since turning 30 fired his team into the lead with a brilliant left-footed strike. Ibanez then put the ball into his own net as Pirlo's side copped maximum points.
Internazionale has quite a mountain to climb as they have to overturn a one-goal deficit at the home of the Old Lady. They did well not to let their Coppa Italia woes affect their hint for a league title as they ran out 2-0 winners away at Fiorentina. Goals in either half from Barella and Perisic ensured they copped maximum points to put pressure on their local rivals.
