Inter look to secure their spot in the Champions League semifinals as they host Benfica in the second leg of their quarter-finals. 

Nicolo Barella and Romelu Lukaku got on the scoresheet in the first leg to give Inter a 2-0 lead on aggregate heading back to the San Siro.

Despite a very impressive overall season, Benfica have now lost three matches in a row after a 1-0 defeat to Chaves in Portuguese league action.

The winner of this quarter-final tie will go onto the face AC Milan in the semi-final of the competition, which for Inter Milan would represent an intra-city derby.

Inter vs Benfica lineups, team news

Manager Simone Inzaghi rested a number of players on the weekend ahead of this fixture, but Milan Skriniar is still out for Inter with a back injury, while Dalbert is recovering from a knee injury. Stefan de Vrij is only on the bench after picking up an ankle injury in their last fixture, meaning the team is unchanged from the first leg.

Inter subs: Handanovic, Cordaz, Gagliardini, De Vrij, Gosens, Correa, Bellanova, Asllani, Calhanoglu, D'Ambrosio, Carboni, Lukaku

Benfica boss Roger Schmidt did not rest any players heading into this fixture, and still lost the last game against Chaves. The Portuguese league leaders are without two players: Alexander Bah is sidelined for Benfica with a knee problem, and Julian Draxler is set to miss out with an ankle injury. Captain Nicolas Otamendi returns from suspension in the only change from the first leg.

Benfica confirmed lineup (4-2-3-1): Vladchodimos (GK) — Gilberto, Antonio Silva, Otamendi, Grimaldo — Florentino, Chiquinho — Joao Mario, Rafa, Aursnes — Ramos
