Inter Milan did a solid job in their single match against Getafe in the round of 16 and managed to reach the quarter-finals. They will now face German side Bayer Leverkusen in another single match that will be played on Monday. Bayer Leverkusen won both matches against Rangers but will now have a tougher task.

Inter Milan are coming into this match after a 0-2 win in the single match for the round of 16 against Getafe. They took the lead at the 33rd minute with Lukaku, while Eriksen sealed the deal with another goal at the 83rd minute. Inter Milan were not good defensively though, as they allowed their opponents to take 17 shots, but they had just two on target. Inter Milan have been in great shape lately (9-1-5) and have kept six clean sheets in their last seven matches. Seven of their nine wins in that span saw them winning at half time too.

Bayer Leverkusen did not have to spend a lot of stamina in their home match against Rangers. They had comfortably won the first leg on the road by 3-1 and this was just a typical procedure. Rangers did not record a single shot on target, while the Germans scored the only goal of the match at the start of the second half. They have consistently scored goals on the road in recent months, failing to do so in just 2 of their last 17 matches in all competitions (12-3-2).

The two teams also met in the second stage of the Champions League back in 2002/03, where Inter Milan won both at home and on the road. The Italians made a great finish to the season and against some really strong teams too. However, Bayer Leverkusen are really capable up front, much like Inter Milan, so I am taking the Over 2.75 Goals here.
