UEFA Champions League picks for Benfica vs. Inter Milan

Before you tune in to Wednesday's match, you need to see the UEFA Champions League picks from betting expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.

Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.

For Inter Milan vs. Benfica, Sutton is picking Under 2.5 goals to be scored for a -120 payout. The expert notes that Under 2.5 has hit for Inter Milan in seven straight matches across all competition. Even with dominant scorers like Lautaro Martinez on offense, Sutton expects Inter to play a more defensively-minded game than they did in the first leg of the quarterfinals.

Benfica was held to just two shots on target in the first matchup between these teams on April 11 and only managed two shots on target in their 1-0 league loss to Chaves on April 15. Between offense not coming easily for the visitors and Inter recording a clean sheet in each of their last three Champions League games, we can expect Wednesday's match to be a low-scoring affair.
