Bayer Leverkusen take on the visitors Inter in the round 6 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 10th at BayArena (Leverkusen).
Bayer Leverkusen has seen a slight dip in form compared to their stellar 2023/24 campaign under Xabi Alonso, where they achieved a domestic double. Retaining the core of their squad and adding reinforcements, the "Aspirins" were expected to maintain their momentum. However, their performances in the Bundesliga and Champions League have been inconsistent. In Europe, Bayer started strong with decisive wins against Feyenoord (4-0) and AC Milan (1-0), but they faltered with a 1-1 draw against Brest, followed by a heavy 0-4 loss to Liverpool. The team bounced back impressively in their latest outing, demolishing RB Salzburg 5-0, showcasing their attacking potential. Bayer’s big win against Salzburg indicates their attacking flair, but their inconsistency remains a concern.

Inter Milan, the reigning Serie A champions, have been consistent this season. Although they couldn’t replicate their 2023 Champions League final appearance, Simone Inzaghi’s side remains competitive both domestically and in Europe. In Serie A, Inter has established themselves among the top teams, while their Champions League campaign has been efficient. After a 0-0 draw against Manchester City, they secured wins against Red Star Belgrade, Young Boys, Arsenal, and RB Leipzig. These results underline their defensive solidity, with goalkeeper Yann Sommer delivering standout performances. Inter’s well-rounded approach and ability to grind out results make them a tough opponent.
Inter has a strong track record against Bayer Leverkusen, winning their previous meetings in the Champions League (2002/03) and Europa League (2020 lockdown season). Expect Leverkusen to push forward at home, while Inter relies on their structured defense and clinical counterattacks.This clash promises to be a tightly contested affair, but Inter’s experience and form give them the upper hand.
Prediction for the match: Inter not to lose (X2).
