Bitesize Prediction: Inter Milan vs Viktoria Plzen – 26/10/22

Competition: Champions League

Market: Lautaro Martínez to score anytime

Odds: 1/1 @ 888sport

Knowing that they could punch their Champions League knockout stage ticket on Wednesday night, Inter Milan will welcome Viktoria Plzen to the San Siro.

Starting with the hosts, eventually managing to snatch a remarkable last-gasp winner away at Fiorentina over the weekend, Inter Milan have continued to shine since returning from September’s international break. Last seen a few days ago grabbing a 4-3 victory away from the San Siro, the former Italian champions are now enjoying a five-match unbeaten run across all formats. Knowing that they could punch their Champions League knockout stage ticket on Wednesday night, Simone Inzaghi will be calling on the red-hot Lautaro Martínez to spearhead their charge here. While the Argentina international might have endured a sluggish start to the 2022/23 campaign, Martínez is now enjoying a real free-scoring run. Including a brace away at Fiorentina over the weekend, the 25-year-old has recorded four goals in his last three appearances.

As for the visitors, while Viktoria Plzen might have shocked many as they clinched their Champions League ticket earlier in the year, the Czech outfit have failed to find any kind of European boost. Last seen in Group C action getting hit with an action-packed 4-2 loss against German giants Bayern Munich, Michal Bílek’s men are yet to put a single point on the board. Opening their European adventure on September 7th with a 5-1 drumming away at Barcelona, the Reds have lost each of their four Champions League showdowns by an aggregate score of 17-3. Likewise, suffering a deserved 2-0 loss when they faced off against Wednesday’s opponents last month, there is no doubt that Plzen face a huge task at the San Siro here.

Bet: Lautaro Martínez to score anytime against Viktoria Plzen 1/1 for Wednesday’s Champions League showdown @ 888sport
