One of the most exciting semi-finals of the 2024/25 Champions League season is coming up: in-form FC Barcelona will host Inter Milan. The Catalans are aiming for a treble, while the Italians are looking to repeat their 2010 success.
Form and history
FC Barcelona
Barcelona are in great form, having recently beaten Real Madrid 3-2 in the Copa del Rey final and leading La Liga. They are unbeaten at home in the Champions League, scoring 21 goals in six games. Hansi Flick's team is playing a creative attacking game, led by Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo and Raphinha. Raphinha has been particularly outstanding, scoring 12 goals and providing 7 assists in the series.
Inter Milan
Inter have been in a mixed bag, losing their last three games and failing to score in any of them. However, they have been solid in the Champions League, losing just twice in their last 20 games. The strength of the defence is goalkeeper Yann Sommer, who has kept a clean sheet in eight games this season.
Expected starting lineups
Barcelona (4-3-3):
Szczesny - Koundé, Cubarsí, Íñigo Martínez, Gerard Martín - De Jong, Pedri, Dani Olmo - Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres, Raphinha
Inter Milan (3-5-2):
Sommer - Bisseck, Acerbi, Bastoni - Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco - Lautaro Martínez, Marcus Thuram
In Focus: Key Duels
- Raphinha vs. Inter defense: The Brazilian striker is in excellent form and could be a key player in scoring goals.
- Frenkie de Jong vs. Nicolò Barella: The duel in midfield can determine the direction of the game.
Lautaro Martínez vs. Barcelona defense: The Argentine striker could be dangerous for the Catalan defense, especially if Thuram supports him.
