Man City vs Inter Football Preview
Manchester City have had some season. Their relentless form since the turn of the year has seen them pip Arsenal to the Premier League title and sweep aside neighbours Manchester United in the FA Cup final. Now they are on the brink of history as they look to become only the second English team to complete the treble.
Standing in their way, Inter, who may not have had the best season, but can beat the best on their day. They finished third in the Serie A, behind only Lazio and Napoli, won the Coppa Italia, and have cruised through their Champions League campaign thus far.
The Italians have been in impeccable form toward the back end of the season, winning 11 of their previous 12 outings. Their only defeat suffered in that run came against champions Napoli. City are on an even better run.
Pep Guardiola’s side have lost once in their last 27 matches in all competitions. This defeat came on the final day of the Premier League season when Guardiola rotated in preparation for the important upcoming games. This immense run includes two games against Arsenal, Bayern and Real Madrid, as well as meetings with Liverpool, Newcastle, Brighton, and an FA Cup final against archrivals United.
Champions League Final: Key Players
Man City’s main man will once again be Kevin De Bruyne. Ilkay Gundogan and Erling Haaland might be the ones stealing the limelight, but De Bruyne makes this City side tick. He picked out his captain expertly for City’s FA Cup final winner, taking his tally to 10 goals and 27 assists this season.
For Inter, top scorer Lautaro Martinez will be key. The Argentine forward has netted 27 goals in all competitions this season and will look to exploit the space left by Romelu Lukaku, who will have the job of occupying the City centre-halves.
Man City vs Inter Betting Tips
Man City win to nil – 2.35
We just can’t see anything other than a Man City win. The way they dispatched Bayern and Real Madrid was quite simply incredible. They are the best team in Europe and are huge favourites to claim the third trophy in a historic treble.
Under 1.5 goals – 4.10
We’ve come to expect fairly cagey affairs in Champions League finals. This probably won’t be any different. Inter will look to soak up the pressure and pounce on the break. The previous three Champions League finals have ended 1-0 and we like the look of under 1.5 goals once again on Saturday night.
