Form Guide and Key Talking Points
Inter Milan
Simone Inzaghi’s side are unbeaten in 15 consecutive home matches in the Champions League, winning 12 of them. Their run to the semi-finals has been built on a solid defensive foundation, having conceded just five goals and keeping eight clean sheets before last week’s 3-3 draw in Spain.
Marcus Thuram’s record-setting goal and Denzel Dumfries’ brace showcased their threat, but defensive frailty allowed Barcelona back into the contest. Inter edged past Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals and remain formidable at San Siro.
Fitness concerns hang over talisman Lautaro Martinez and defender Benjamin Pavard. However, midfield anchor Hakan Calhanoglu returns, with Yann Sommer, Thuram, Dumfries, and Mkhitaryan all expected to start after being rested at the weekend.
Barcelona
Under Hansi Flick, Barcelona are in fearsome form, having won 24 of their last 30 matches. They arrive in Milan with momentum after defeating Real Valladolid and claiming the Copa del Rey title against Real Madrid. Their only Champions League defeat this spring came in a dead rubber against Dortmund.
Lamine Yamal’s brilliance lit up the first leg, taking his Champions League tally to five goals as a teenager. Raphinha’s involvement in 20 goals so far has added further dynamism to their forward line. The Catalans are closing in on their own all-time Champions League scoring record.
However, their record in away semi-final ties is dismal, with just two wins from 13 attempts. Their last four away semi-finals have all ended in defeat, and they’ve won just once in six trips to San Siro.
Likely Starting Lineups
Inter Milan (3-5-2):
Sommer; Bisseck, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Arnautovic, Thuram
Barcelona (4-2-3-1):
Szczesny; Garcia, Araujo, Cubarsi, Martinez; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Olmo, Raphinha; Torres
