Champions League Matches: Inter vs. Benfica and Napoli vs. Real Madrid Preview

The wait is over and after two weeks of waiting the Champions League is ready to illuminate European football with two stops in Italy. On the Meazza-Maradona axis, Inter-Benfica – live on Canale 5 and also visible on sportmediaset.it and on Mediaset Infinity – e Napoli-Real Madrid they are the two matches for a great cup night colored by the warmth of the fans. Simone Inzaghi’s team hosts Benfica a few months after the quarter-final of the last edition of the Champions League, while Napoli awaits Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid. Entertainment, in any case.

Both will take to the pitch knowing the outcome of the other matches in their group with Salzburg playing at home against Real Sociedad in the Nerazzurri group and Union Berlin awaiting Braga in Germany in the Neapolitan group. An aspect that should not be underestimated, of course, but which changes little with respect to the preparation of the match for both Simone Inzaghi and Rudi Garcia.

INTER RELYS ON LAUTARO AND CAN’T MAKE WRONG

The initial rest in Salerno is already a distant memory and after the poker against Arechi theInter finds Lautaro Martinez polished to seek their first victory in this Champions League. The Argentine striker, after a couple of games in reserve, has regained the stage in the most sensational way possible and now in Europe, in front of his friend and compatriot Of Mariawants to confirm himself as the undisputed leader of this Inter.

After the draw in San Sebastian against Real Sociedad, which was fundamental for the outcome, the Nerazzurri know that they cannot make mistakes in front of their fans and for this reason Inzaghi has set the rotations in the championship to arrive at the appointment in the best possible way. In addition to Martinez, Mkhitaryan and Dimarco will also find their place as starters, as well as Bastoni. This is the probable lineup:

Inter (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Martinez, Thuram.

NAPLES CAN DREAMS OF ANOTHER NIGHT AS CHAMPIONS

Il Napoli has it really returned to being the roller coaster that amazed Italy and Europe last season? Are September’s setbacks just a page torn from the calendar to be forgotten? For these and other answers, the most beautiful and awaited, there is no more beautiful stage than that of the Champions League and if on the other side of the pitch the opponent wears Real Madrid shirts, the ingredients for a night of dreams and confirmations are all there.

Kvaratskhelia e Osimhen they are ready to lead the attack of Rudi Garcia’s Napoli after having received the compliments of King Carlo Ancelotti, a former player who was never truly loved but who is also finding a place in his own way in his Real Madrid, confirming that every world is its own country. Rudi Garcia can do nothing but rely on certainties in this moment also made up of defections and gritted teeth in defense, leaving the talented duo of Zielinski, Lobotka and Anguissa with the task of containing the Merengues by trying to attack them.

Easy? No. Possible? Yes, to try with absolute conviction. For Naples, the packed Maradona and for an Ancelottian past to be reclaimed on the pitch, when the love between the parties did not blossom. And therefore be careful Bellingham, to the physicality of Real and the technique of the midfielder. This is Napoli’s probable lineup:

Napoli (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Ostigard, Natan, Olivera; Anguissa, Lobotka, Zielinski; Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia.
