Inter Milan will take on AC Milan in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League 2022-23 semi-final fixture on Tuesday night, May 16 at San Siro. The Nerazzuri recorded a 0-2 win in the first leg to put themselves in the favorite category to reach the UCL final. Former Roma stars Edin Dzeko and Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored early goals to help Inter put one foot in the final with a first-ever UCL triumph over their biggest rivals.
But Rossoneri will not go down without a fight as they will be looking to overcome a two-goal defeat. However, their recent form and head-to-head record against Inter is not helpful. Milan have lost three times in four meetings against Inter this season and are also trailing five points behind their rivals in the Serie A table. Inter recorded a 4-2 win over Sassuolo in their last league game with Romelu Lukaku scoring twice while AC Milan suffered a 2-0 defeat against Spezia on Saturday.
