In another UEFA Europa League Round of 16 second leg match, Porto hosts Inter Milan. Although Porto lost 0-1 in the first leg, they will have to go all out on offense to turn things around. However, Odavio Emerson, the centerpiece of the offense, is out of action due to suspension, which will definitely weaken the team's attacking power. On the other hand, Inter Milan, with a one-goal advantage in hand, is expected to keep their solid tactics and try to consolidate their lead. According to statistics, Inter Milan's total goals in 6 out of their last 8 matches did not exceed 2 goals, so for this match, you may want to look for a goal difference of less than 2.5 goals.

Porto was able to qualify at the top of the group, thanks in large part to the weakness of their opponents in the same group. However, after entering the round of 16, the team's true level of performance gradually emerged. In the first leg away to Inter Milan, Porto was caught in a passive mood when attacking midfielder Odavio Emerson lost control of his emotions and was eventually sent off with a red card. The 28-year-old Portuguese international is Porto's vice-captain and a key player in the team's offense. He has scored four goals and dished out five assists in the Portuguese Premier League this season and has two assists in the UEFA Europa League. His absence will have a serious impact on Porto's offensive organization. In addition, Porto's last 4 UEFA Europa League matches have a home record of 2 wins and 2 losses, so it is difficult to gain an advantage in this match.
On Inter Milan's side, it took until the 86th minute for Lukaku to score in the first leg, narrowly defeating Porto 1-0. In fact, this Serie A veteran team is not in the best of form, having lost two of their last three league matches. Striker Nadalu Martinez is in poor form, missing 12 yards in his last Serie A match, and is the culprit of the team's loss. In addition, Inter Milan's last 5 away games in the UEFA Europa League have resulted in 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, with 4 of those games totaling no more than 2 goals. It will not be easy to break down Porto's door in this campaign. Considering that both sides have the possibility of advancing, there is no need to start a fierce offense and defense with the opponents, and the number of goals scored is favored to be less than 2 goals.
