Bayern Munich are unbeaten in their last 22 European home matches, a streak stretching back to 2021.
Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich host Inter Milan in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday evening. Both teams enter this contest in strong form. Bayern booked their place in the last eight by defeating domestic rivals Bayer Leverkusen 5-0 on aggregate. Meanwhile, reigning Serie A leaders Inter Milan got the better of Dutch side Feyenoord 4-1 on aggregate in the round of 16.
Across a combined 59 league matches this season, Bayern and Inter have suffered just five defeats, which shows their consistency. Both teams have been hampered by injuries in the last few weeks. Bayern have been particularly hit hard with several key players unavailable due to injury.

Bayern are unbeaten in their last 22 European home matches, a streak stretching back to 2021. The Allianz Arena has been a fortress for the Bavarians, and even with Jamal Musiala ruled out due to a hamstring injury, they are expected to control the tempo and limit Inter’s opportunities. While Inter are no pushovers, backing Bayern to avoid defeat at home feels like a smart and safe play.

Even without Musiala pulling strings in midfield, Bayern are likely dominate possession here. Expect Thomas Muller and Leroy Sane to step into more creative roles. Musiala’s absence should lead to more crosses and attacking intent from the flanks, increasing the chances of Bayern winning the corner count comfortably.
This could be a chess match rather than a goalfest. Bayern will miss the creativity and drive of Musiala, and Inter are likely to approach the game with caution, aiming to keep things tight and manageable for the return leg in Milan. Inter’s strong defensive unit has conceded just two goals in the UCL so far and under 4.5 goals looks a good addition for the bet-builder.
