Bayern Munich meets Inter Milan in a return match of the Champions League, after the first game ended 0:1 in favor of the Germans.
Mario Gomez brought the victory in the 90th minute and moved Bayern one step closer to the quarter finals. Bayern seeks revenge after losing the final last year to Inter with 0:2. In their last Bundesliga meeting Bayern won against Hamburger SV with 6:0, warming up for the game on Tuesday. Van Gaal’s team has been unbeaten at home in the past 7 home games, recording 7 straight victories.
Inter although losing the first game, remains with chances, since a victory with only one goal, or one goal difference is enough for the team to advance in the next stage. That being said, the Italians have visited Bayern twice, once in a friendly game in 2007 and once in 2006 in the Group Stage of the tournament. The friendly game ended in favor of Inter, 1:0, while the game for the Champions League ended 1:1.

Bayern already met an Italian team on day 1 of the group stage, beating Roma with 2:0. Their overall home record against Italian teams reads W6 D5 L4. Inter did poorly in the away games of the group stage, drawing against Twente 2:2, and losing to Tottenham and Werder (1:3, 0:3).
Inter has failed to win their last 4 visits in Germany including the most recent one against Werder. Their last victory on German soil was back in 2002/03 against Leverkusen.
That being said, I am backing Bayern Munich for the game on Tuesday. The Germans show a similar performance in the CL as last year, and I wont be surprised if they reach the final once again. Having scored 16 goals in the groups stage, the third team with most goals and winning 7 consecutive home games in the Champions League makes Bayern the favorite in this match. Yes Inter is the defending champion, but I give credit mostly to Mourinho who was leading them, than on the team. But let’s not forget Eto’o and his brilliant taste for the goal.
