With the draw results and the Bayern Munich vs Inter Milan match, most football fans were reminded of the 2010 final, where Diego Milito scored two goals, leading the Nerazzurri to claim the title and the historic treble under Portuguese coach José Mourinho.

 

Although Bayern Munich has the upper hand in head-to-head encounters with 4 wins compared to Inter’s 2, the two victories for the Italian side were far more painful for Bayern than their own wins.

 

Bayern Munich vs Inter Milan: The 2010 Final and Elimination the Following Year

 

Since this is the most notable match between Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, we begin by discussing the 2010 final, which took place at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

 

The match witnessed a stunning performance from Argentine striker Diego Milito and Dutch star Wesley Sneijder, while Inter’s defence was solid and resilient, especially after their incredible elimination of Barcelona and the legendary resistance they showed at Camp Nou with only 10 players.

 

The Nerazzurri didn’t just snatch the title from Bayern in the final; they also eliminated the German club the following year in the Round of 16, ending Bayern’s dreams of winning any European titles for two tournament versions in a row.

It’s worth mentioning that Inter secured qualification in the 2011 second-leg match with the away-goals rule before this rule was changed 10 years later.

 

Bayern Munich vs Inter Milan: German Team’s Victories in the Group Stage

 

As mentioned earlier, Bayern Munich has the upper hand in head-to-head encounters with Inter, having defeated them on four occasions. Three of these victories came in the group stages of the 2006/2007 and 2022/2023 seasons, as well as in the first leg of the 2010/2011 season, after which the Bavarian club was eliminated in the return leg.

 

Inter Dreams of Repeating the 2010 Treble with Domestic Dominance

 

Practically, Inter is fighting to secure a treble this season, sitting at the top of Serie A with a 3-point lead over Napoli, and enjoying a 6-match winning streak in Serie A and Champions League, before a draw with Milan in Coppa Italia. 

 

Speaking about the Coppa, Inter has a great chance to reach the final, having drawn 1-1 with Milan in the first leg of the semi-finals.

 

The UEFA Champions League remains the toughest competition for them. Will the Nerazzurri be able to break through Bayern’s wall, who is having a very modest season on the European stage?

 

Here is a list of Inter’s top players this season in terms of statistics, from both Serie A and the UEFA Champions League:

 

Assists	Goals	Played	Player
3	17	38	Lautaro Martinez
4	17	38	Marcus Thuram
4	6	36	Dunzel Dumfries

 

Bayern Munich vs. Inter Milan: Bayern’s Quest for Revenge and European Comeback

 

Unusually, Bayern Munich did not achieve excellent results in the group stage of the Champions League. While this year’s version had new regulations, the German team suffered 3 defeats: a 4-1 loss to Barcelona, a 3-0 loss to Feyenoord, and a loss to Aston Villa as well.

 

This led them to play in a playoff to reach the knockout stage and then the quarter-finals, amid disappointment over the team’s performance in these matches.

 

This situation prompted many Bayern fans to criticise the coaching staff and some players, including German national team captain Joshua Kimmich, whose name was later linked to a Real Madrid transfer.

 

Domestically, Bayern leads the Bundesliga with a comfortable 7-point gap over Bayer Leverkusen, but the latter knocked Bayern out of the German Cup, crushing their hopes of achieving a treble this season.

 

Beyond this season’s ambitions, the German team is aiming to eliminate Inter for revenge in 2010 and 2011, when the Italian team ended Bayern’s hopes of winning the European title.

 

Here is a list of Bayern’s top players this season in terms of statistics, from both the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League:

 

Assists	Goals	Played	Player
9	32	36	Harry Kane
5	14	36	Jamal Musiala
11	13	39	Michael Olise

 

Best Betting Options for Bayern Munich vs. Inter Milan

 

This type of encounter always presents several opportunities to make profits while enjoying an exciting match. However, it also carries risks due to the surprises that often occur.

 

Total Goals Under 2.5 at 1.87

 

This bet has a strong supporting point: Inter Milan has conceded only two goals in the UEFA Champions League, making them the best defence in the competition.

 

The Nerazzurri conceded just one goal in the group stage and another against Feyenoord. They are unlikely to play an attacking game at the Allianz Arena, especially considering the importance of the return leg.

 

Bayern Munich, on the other hand, will likely not give their all in the first leg, especially with the injury of Alphonso Davies, one of their key attacking players. As a result, we can expect a tactical match.

 

With a potential return value of 1.87, this option seems realistic and profitable for those looking to bet on this thrilling encounter on Betfinal Sportsbook.
