Italian journalist Massimo Marianella offers his take on Wednesday’s big Champions League showdown between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich.

The Nerazzurri have the upper hand as they currently lead 2-1 on aggregate and will play the decisive second leg on home soil.

Lautaro Martinez gave the Italians the lead with a sensational finish with the outside of the boot. In the final stages of the match,

Thomas Muller produced a valuable equalizer, but Davide Frattesi swiftly restored Inter’s lead, finishing off a swift counter-attack.

The Bavarians were the big favourites to win the first leg at the Allianz Arena. Therefore, many punters weren’t happy with their bookmakers who underestimated Inter’s chances, overlooking the fact that the Italian champions have been on a tear this season, only conceding one goal throughout the group stage.

This time around, the odds might be in Inter’s favour thanks to their first-leg lead and home-court advantage.

Moreover, Bayern will arrive at San Siro with several key absentees. They will be without the injured Jamal Musiala, Manuel Neuer, Dayot Upamecano and Alphonso Davies.

Nevertheless, Marianella believes the Bundesliga leaders remain extremely dangerous.

“I would say that Bayern aren’t as strong as Inter, especially due to their injuries, but they are still dangerous,” said the journalist during his appearance on Sky Sport Italia via FcInterNews.

However, Marianella believes the reigning Italian champions and Serie A leaders have what it takes to seal the deal.

“Inter, however, are strong enough to handle the anger, desire and heritage of the Germans. It won’t be easy, but I think Inzaghi’s team can do it.

“I commented on the best precedent of all between the two teams (the final in Madrid on 22 May 2010). So it’s nice that the fans remind me of this every time they meet me.”

The two clubs famously clashed heads in the Champions League final back in 2010. Jose Mourinho’s men clinched the big-eared trophy thanks to Diego Milito’s unforgettable brace.

This saw the Nerazzurri complete the treble, as they had already sealed the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia that season.

This remains a unique achievement in the club’s history. Nevertheless, Inzaghi’s men still have the opportunity to replicate it this term.
