Prediction Inter vs Barcelona in UEFA Champions League (08.05.2025)

A thrilling match is set as Inter Milan hosts Barcelona in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at 01:00 WIB. The first leg was packed with excitement and goals, leaving both teams with an equal chance to reach the final. Here’s the latest update from both sides ahead of their encounter at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.

Current Condition of Inter
The Nerazzurri returned from Spain with pride after securing an impressive draw against Barcelona. Although playing defensively with just 28% ball possession, Inter executed their game plan brilliantly, converting all three shots on goal into goals. They could have even celebrated a victory had Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s fourth goal not been disallowed due to a minimal offside. Inter has proven their strength and signaled they won’t go down without a fight in the second leg.

Current Condition of Barcelona
Barcelona maintained their trademark attacking style in the first leg, pushing high with their defensive line. Despite conceding two early goals, Hansi Flick’s team showed great character to recover and remain in contention for the final. Young sensation Lamine Yamal caused significant problems for Inter’s defense, especially on the right flank, scoring a spectacular goal despite being closely guarded by five opponents. Pedri’s commanding presence in midfield helped Barcelona dominate the second half, but they’ll miss the advantage of playing in front of their home crowd this time.

Match Statistics
Since 2018, Inter and Barcelona have faced each other seven times. Barcelona leads with three wins compared to Inter’s one, and three matches ended in a draw.
