Atl. Madrid vs Inter prediction: EUROPE: Champions League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-11-25 20:00.
[p]Atlético Madrid’s excellent recent domestic form doesn’t match their record in Europe this term, which is in stark contrast to an Inter Milan side who have made a perfect start to the UEFA Champions League (UCL) league phase.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Atlético haven’t found much consistency in Europe this term (W2, L2) but winning their last five competitive fixtures is hugely encouraging. They struck late at Getafe on Sunday (W 1-0) and Diego Simeone’s side should relish returning to the Metropolitano Stadium as they’ve won 11 of their last 12 UCL home games (L1), which is a competition-leading record since the start of the 2023/24 campaign. Both of Los Colchoneros’ UCL wins this term came here with them scoring 3+ goals, although interestingly they’ve never previously done so in three UCL home games in a row.[/p]
[p]Despite making a flawless start to their UCL campaign (W4) and not conceding a goal from open play in this competition this term, Inter Milan travel on a downer after losing 1-0 to city rivals AC Milan on Sunday, bringing to an end a run of four consecutive competitive victories. The Nerazzurri are trying to open a UCL campaign with five straight wins for the first time, and winning both UCL away fixtures this term without conceding should boost belief as they head to Spain bidding to extend their unbeaten UCL away run to seven matches (W5, D1). [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Atlético edge the H2H stakes (W2, L1) including winning the only previous meeting here 2-1 in March 2024. Atlético have lost just one of nine previous UCL/European Cup home games (W7, D1) against Italian sides, while Inter are winless across their last 12 European away games against Spanish opponents (D4, L8).[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Sixteen of Atlético’s last 17 UCL fixtures featured over 2.5 goals.[/p]
[p]Atlético have conceded seven of their nine UCL goals this term after half-time.[/p]
[p]There were goals in both halves in each of Inter’s last seven UCL outings.[/p]
[p]Inter have earned either four or five corners in five of their last six competitive away games.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Antoine Griezmann has scored three goals after the 60th minute across AtlĂ©tico’s last three home games. Preferring to strike early, Inter’s Lautaro MartĂnez has netted four goals across Inter’s last three UCL fixtures, three of them before half-time.[/p]
[p]Robin Le Normand is sidelined for Atlético, while Jan Oblak and Marcos Llorente are doubtful after recent injury scares. Inter could still be without Matteo Darmian, Raffaele Di Gennaro and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.[/p]
