Inter vs Atletico Madrid Preview & Prediction (20:00 KO)
Atletico Madrid head to Milan to take on Inter at the San Siro in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie on Tuesday night, in what will be the pair’s first competitive meeting since 2010.
Atleti came out on top in that one, pipping the Serie A giants to the UEFA Super Cup title via a 2-0 triumph. It’s set to be an entirely different prospect this time around though, with Inter heavily favoured among bookmakers at around 3/4.
Having finished second in their group behind Real Sociedad, Simone Inzaghi’s side come into this one in excellent form. They are unbeaten in their last 10 outings across all competitions, winning each of their last eight, and are currently nine points clear at the summit of the Italian top flight.
Diego Simeone’s side meanwhile, advanced to the last-16 after topping a group consisting of Lazio, Feyenoord and Celtic, but find themselves occupying fourth place in La Liga, behind Real Madrid, Girona and Barcelona.
They head into European play off the back of a dominant 5-0 win over Las Palmas, in which Marcos Llorente and Angel Correa netted a brace apiece, along with a late goal from Memphis Depay.
We at SportsLens anticipate a closely-fought battle in Tuesday evening’s first leg, but are backing the more in-form Inter to narrowly edge the tie and carry an advantage into the second leg at the Metropolitano.
Prediction: Inter 2-1 Atletico Madrid

Inter vs Atletico Madrid Betting Tip 1: Both Teams To Score @ 1/1
Our first tip for your Tuesday night Inter vs Atletico Madrid Champions League bet builder is to back both teams to score in the match, priced by leading UK betting sites at 1/1.
Inter have scored in each of their last 12 matches, with their last goalless game coming against Sociedad in their final Champions League group game, while Atleti have achieved the same feat in 12 of their last 14 outings.
Both sides are notorious for their defensive prowess, especially in Europe, however with both sides coming into this one off the back of 4-0 and 5-0 wins respectively – we’re expecting goals on at the San Siro.
Inter vs Atletico Madrid Betting Tip 2: Lautaro Martinez To Score Anytime @ 13/8
Lautaro Martinez has had another incredibly impressive season in Italy, currently topping the Serie A goalscoring charts with 20 goals in 22 matches – seven goals clear of second place Dusan Vlahovic.
A further three goals can be added to that tally when considering cup competitions, with two of those coming in the Champions League group stages against Real Sociedad and RB Salzburg.
The Argentine World Cup winner scored in the 4-0 win over Salernitana last time out and is in especially strong form since the turn of the year, boasting six goals from his eight appearances in 2024.
We at SportsLens are backing the 26-year-old to maintain this strong goalscoring form by scoring at anytime against Atleti in the first leg, priced by leading UK bookmakers at 13/8.
