Champions League Round of 16 First Leg Correct Score Predictions
Feyenoord vs Inter Milan
- Date: 05/03/2025
- Kick-off: 18:45
- Inter Milan have the best defense in the competition, and we can easily imagine Feyenoord going blank or scoring only one goal.
Inter Milan conceded just once in 8 Champions League matches in the league phase and scored 11. The Serie A side struggled to score 2+ goals in most of these matches, and playing away from home against a Feyenoord team looking to make a statement in this year’s competition, the chances of Inter scoring more than two goals are slim.
Correct score prediction: Feyenoord 1-2 Inter Milan
Benfica vs Barcelona
- Date: 05/03/2025
- Kick-off: 21:00
- Matches involving Benfica and Barcelona usually produce many goals, but the Catalans are in dangerous form to outscore the Portuguese with ease.
The last time both teams met, Benfica was on the wrong end of a nine-goal thriller in Portugal. Barcelona had to dig deep to turn the event around with five goals. The upcoming game may not be as exciting, but we expect the Catalans to maintain their high-pressing football.
Correct score prediction: Benfica 1-3 Barcelona
Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen
- Date: 05/03/2025
- Kick-off: 21:00
- Bayer Leverkusen may have been a handful for Bayern to handle in recent matches, but the Champions League has its aura, and the Bavarians are not short in that area.
Bayer Munich are the favourites to win the upcoming game, and because Bayer are also a good goalscoring side, the chances of Kompany’s side keeping a clean sheet are slim. However, we think Bayern can edge Bayer due to their vast Champions League experience. A tight win for the hosts cannot be ruled out.
Correct score prediction: Bayern Munich 2-1 Bayer Leverkusen
PSG vs Liverpool
- Date: 05/03/2025
- Kick-off: 21:00
- Both teams have already displayed their attacking points in the Champions League this term, and their current form suggests this encounter will be tight.
Liverpool are the favourites to go through to the next round but are unlikely to win in both legs. PSG are in dangerous form, having avoided a defeat in 22 matches across all competitions. Liverpool are a forceful side and lead the Premier League standings with 13 points. If everything goes as planned, this encounter should end in an entertaining 2-2 draw.
Correct score prediction: PSG 2-2 Liverpool
