Inter Milan vs Real Sociedad tips and predictions: Serie A leaders to hold their nerve on Tuesday

This game will determine the winner of the group, as the two teams are tied with 11 points each with one round remaining. Real Sociedad will advance with a draw, while Inter Milan need to win.

Inter demonstrated their prowess last weekend, defeating Udinese 4-0 at home. The victory was a fine warm-up for the crucial clash against Sociedad.

Hakan Calhanoglu, Federico Dimarco, Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez scored the goals for the Nerazzurr to keep them top of Serie A.

Simone Inzaghi’s team is coming off an incredible comeback against Benfica in the UCL. The hosts were leading 3-0 in Lisbon, but the Italians managed to score three times and rescue a point.

With high spirits, Sociedad heads into the match following a convincing victory in the league. The Basque team secured a 3-0 win at Villarreal, with goals scored in the first half by Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi, and Takefusa Kubo.

In La Liga, they are currently locked in a tight battle for fifth place with Athletic Bilbao and Real Betis.

In the previous round, Imanol Alguacil’s team drew 0-0 at home against Salzburg. However, Sociedad remain the group leader on goal difference, 7-2 to 8-5.

Inter Milan know that only a win will do. The Italian side have the better quality on paper and we think it’ll show over 90 minutes as they get the job done.
