Inter Milan hold a narrow advantage over Porto host Inter Milan looking to fight back from a one-goal deficit and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

The Portuguese side had Otavio sent off late in the first leg, before Romelu Lukaku struck to earn Inter a 1-0 win.

A place in the last eight would appeal to both clubs - neither has been able to mount a true title challenge domestically with Benfica and Napoli charging clear in Portugal and Italy respectively.

Both managers have a couple of key selection decisions to make ahead of the second leg.

Team news

Otavio’s suspension necessitates at least one change for Porto manager Sergio Conceicao, who rotated his squad in the league win over Estoril Praia on Friday. Evanilson has been struggling with a thigh injury and may again miss out, but Stephen Eustaqio could yet feature despite being forced off against Estoril with a heel issue.

Inter elected to leave out goalkeeper Andre Onana at the weekend, resting their first-choice stopper with Samir Handanovic handed a start. Onana should return in Portugal. Simone Inzaghi has a decision to make up front, where Edin Dzeko could be preferred to Romelu Lukaku alongside Lautaro Martinez. Milan Skriniar hopes to be fit for the second leg after his back injury.

Predicted line-ups

Porto XI: Costa; Mario, Pepe, Cardoso, Sanusi; Uribe, Grujic; Franco, Pepe, Galeno; Taremi

Inter XI: Onana; De Vrij, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Dzeko, Martinez.
