Inter v Barcelona Preview
Inter’s Form
Inter were dominant winners of the Serie A last season, coming 19 points clear of their bitter rivals Milan while also winning the Supercoppa. This season promised multiple trophies early days, but a poor run of results meant they were knocked out of the Coppa Italia semi-finals, runners-up in the Supercoppa and now trail Napoli in Serie A by 3 points with 3 games remaining. This competition may now be their best chance of any silverware.
In the first leg, they were extremely efficient with their chances, scoring their 3 goals from just 28% of possession and 7 shots for an XG of 0.90 following Thuram’s early goal and a brace from Dumfries. Interestingly, at the weekend, they rotated their side heavily despite being in a title race, which goes to show how much they’re targeting a big performance in this second leg tie.
One of the most underappreciated Champions League sides, this could fall right into their hands and with stars like Bastoni, Barella and Martinez leading their charge, an Inter win couldn’t be classified as a major shock.

Barcelona’s Form
A new era at Barcelona Football Club, with it being close to half a decade since the departure of club icon Lionel Messi. While the Argentine’s departure leaves an irreplaceable hole, along with his supporting cast. This new iteration of their squad looks as exciting as ever, but to a different end with Yamal, Torres, Raphinha, and Fati has revolutionised their style of play to be more direct and full of pace while also being able to still dominate possession.
This Barcelona side have been dominant in 24/25 with victories already in the Copa del Rey and Supercopa as well as a lead in La Liga. It means a positive result in this game will keep their quadruple chances alive for at least a few more weeks. Like their opponents, they also rotated heavily at the weekend despite being in their own title race, but still did enough to win.
The major story ahead of the first leg was how Ferran would figure leading the line in the absence of Lewandowski. But he proved his worth with a goal in the 3-3 draw and was one of the best players on the pitch, doing more than enough to continue his role as the leading striker.

Key Players To Watch
Lautaro Martinez -Inter
The Argentinian Striker and Inter Captain is one of the most underrated footballers in European Football, despite a record of 27 goals and 7 assists from 44 matches in all competitions this season. This season, he has been less prolific but remains effective with 21 goals and 6 assists in 46 games across all competitions.
He can be gotten at 11/2 to score in this game first and 6/4 to score any time in the game.
Martinez anytime goal - 6/4
Ferran Torres - Barcelona
The electric winger by trade has been excellent since signing from City in 2022 and will offer something very different on Saturday Night. His electric pace, elite dribbling ability and link-up play will be the perfect foil for the likes of Yamal and Raphinna.
This season, he has 19 goals and 4 assists in 43 games, but it translates to 1.18 goal contributions per 90. He is 5/1 to score first in this game and 6/4 to score anytime.
Torres first goal - 5/1
Inter v Barcelona Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Inter 1-2 Barcelona
Inter showed they’ve the perfect tactical ability to deal with anyone in this competition and head into the game with every chance of going through due to home advantage. Barcelona are on the charge for a quadruple, and this may be their toughest challenge to achieve that feat.
This tie could go either way, but I still give Barcelona the slight edge.
Best Bet: BTTS + Barcelona Win - 11/4
