Inter Milan vs Barcelona

Both Teams to Score | |
17/20 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning With two well-matched sides pushing for a Serie A return, goals are likely at both ends. Cremonese are strong at home and always carry a threat, while Spezia are efficient on the break with a prolific forward in Esposito. Both teams should have the quality to get on the scoresheet. | |
Key Stats:
- 3-3 draws in both of the last two Inter vs Barcelona meetings.
- Barcelona have scored 40 goals in the Champions League this season – the highest tally remaining.
- Inter are unbeaten in 15 consecutive home Champions League games, with 12 victories.
Rationale
In what promises to be a high-octane battle at San Siro, both Inter and Barca enter the return leg with serious firepower and plenty to fight for. After the wild 3-3 in Spain, there’s no reason to expect a cagey affair this time either. Inter found the net inside the opening minute of the first leg and added two more via unlikely hero Denzel Dumfries, while the Catalan giants responded with three of their own thanks to their relentless forward play led by Lamine Yamal and Raphinha.
Barcelona have now scored in every Champions League match this campaign, racking up 40 goals — a figure that stands as the second-highest tally ever achieved by the club in a single UCL season. On the other side, Inter’s record at home is formidable: they’re unbeaten in their last 15 European games at the San Siro, finding the net in the vast majority.
Given the attacking talent on show and the defensive frailties evident in the first leg, both teams to score again looks like a rock-solid call.
