Inter Milan: On Monday Inter Milan confirmed that Romelu Lukaku was injured again and will miss UEFA Champions League’s clash against Bayern Munich. The Belgian striker has suffered a thigh strain after he felt muscle pain during Sunday’s training session. Inter Milan will play on Sunday the Derby d’Italia against Juventus at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, and it’s extremely unlikely that Lukaku will be fit on time. However, he should be fully back on time before the beginning of the 2022 World Cup.
Prediction
Considering that both teams have already reached their target, it should be a quite fun game and Bayern are expected to win. Pick: Bayern Munich 2, Inter Milan 1.
