Inter Milan vs Barcelona Prediction, Preview & Betting Tips

Inter Milan versus Barcelona promises to be a fascinating contest following last week’s thrilling 3-3 draw in Catalonia.

During that game, Hansi Flick’s side were actually the more dominant of the two, as they had 71% possession and 19 shots to Inter’s seven, however, the Serie A side were clinical, scoring all of their shots on target; hence, why we believe that this will be another exhilarating match-up.

Simone Inzaghi’s men managed their first win at the weekend, ending a five-game winless run, while Barcelona have won 13 of their last 16 matches across all competitions, hence why they are still slight favourites to progress through to the Champions League final.

The Both Teams to score market has landed in four of Barcelona’s last five matches and with Blaugrana being in superior form, we are predicting them to win via a 2-1 scoreline.

Prediction: Inter Milan 1-2 Barcelona

Inter Milan and Barcelona face off in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final.

Date: 06/05/2025

Location: San Siro

Time: 8pm

As previously mentioned, the first leg resulted in a stunning 3-3 draw, a game which saw Barcelona constantly chasing the game, as Inter took a 2-0 lead after just 21 minutes through goals by Marcus Thuram and Denzel Dumfries, before Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres cancelled out those early strikes. Dumfries gave Inter the lead once again in the 63rd-minute, however, an unfortunate Yann Sommer own goal levelled up the tie at 3-3.

Inter Milan’s season could solely rely upon their Champions League campaign, as they trail Napoli by three points with just three league matches to go in Serie A. In Europe, Simone Inzaghi’s men have been solid, as they finished fourth in the Group Stage with 19 points from eight matches, before knocking out Feyenoord (4-1) and Bayern Munich (4-3) in the run-up to this tie.

Barcelona are on the hunt for a quadruple, as Hansi Flick’s men won the Supercopa de Espana final against Real Madrid (5-2) as well as the Copa del Rey final 3-2 against Los Blancos. In La Liga, Blaugrana sit four points clear of Real Madrid with just four games to go.

Flick’s men have been superb in the Champions League to date, as they accumulated 19 points from eight matches in the Group Stage, before beating Benfica (4-1 on aggregate), as well as last season’s finalists Borussia Dortmund 5-3 on aggregate to reach this stage of the competition.
