Inter Preview
Inter Milan are not going through their best moment, but they are one of those teams that can never be left for dead. The team coached by Simone Inzaghi currently occupies the ninth position in the Italian Serie A, where it has not won for two matchdays. In Group C of this Champions League, the Black-and-blues are in third place with one win and one loss.
In the most recent UEFA Champions League matchday, Inter won 2-0 against Viktoria Plzen as visitors. The scorers for the Italian side were Edin Dzeko and Denzel Dumfries, who will be hoping to repeat the feat in this Inter vs Barcelona game. The absences of Romelu Lukaku, Marcelo Brozovic, and Lautaro Martínez (who seems to be a doubt until the last minute) definitely make the key much more complicated for the Italian super champion.
Possible Inter lineup: André Onana; Milan Skriniar, Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni, Denzel Dumfries, Nicolò Barella, Roberto Gagliardini, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Robin Gosens, Edin Dzeko, Joaquín Correa.
Barcelona Preview
Xavi Hernández’s team is in the process of recovering its identity and greatness. The Culés currently occupy the first position in the Spanish League with 6 wins and 1 draw, being together with Real Madrid, for the moment, the undefeated team of the season.
In the Champions League, the blaugranas occupy second place in Group C. Although they have the same points as Inter, their goal difference is greater. In their last match, Barça lost 2-0 against their executioner, Bayern Munich. For this big clash, the visitors are likely to base their tactics around Robert Lewandowski, their star signing and current top scorer.
Possible Barcelona lineup: Marc-André Ter Stegen; Sergi Roberto, Andreas Christensen, Marcos Alonso, Eric Garcia, Franck Kessie, Sergio Busquets, Pedri, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, Ousmane Dembélé.
JefeBet Prediction
Taking into account the performance of both teams in their local tournaments and in the Champions League, this time we are leaning towards the Spaniards as the winners of this Inter vs Barcelona. The team led by the legend and former player Xavi Hernández has more and more personality and hierarchy in all its performances.
Prediction: Barcelona win 2-1.
