Inter Milan (INT) and Barcelona (BAR) are set to go toe-to-toe against each other in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal at San Siro. Both the teams played an edge-of-the-seat thriller in the first leg that concluded with a 3-3 scoreline. Inter Milan will try to script history by reaching the finals of UCL for the first time since 2010. On the other side, FC Barcelona will try to keep their treble hopes alive by getting the better of the hosts in the second leg.
Inter Milan has boasted an equally impressive season. However, the team has faced a significant downfall in their last five fixtures. They are currently ranked second in the Serie A table behind Napoli. Inter Milan have lost 3 of their last 5 matches, however, they still managed to hold Barcelona to a draw in their last meeting. This time, they will be missing the services of their top scorer and influential skipper Lautaro Martinez. However, with home support, the team will be backing themselves to end on top at the conclusion of the fixture.
FC Barcelona Preview:
The Catalan giants have been in great form in the 2024-25 season. They have already bagged two domestic titles, beating their arch-rivals Real Madrid - Super Copa De Espana and Copa Del Rey. The Catalans are also leading the La Liga table. FC Barcelona have been on a winning streak for the last 10 matches. The team boasts the most feared attacking trio of the season - Raphinha, Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal. On the defensive side, the team saw the return of Andreas Christensen in their last La Liga fixture. However, with Jules Koundé and Balde out of the match, the wings may become prone to exploits at San Siro.
