What the expert says...
Barcelona host Inter in first leg
Barcelona have turned the Olympic Stadium into a fortress during this Champions League campaign, winning every home game so far.
With Robert Lewandowski and young stars like Lamine Yamal and Pedri shining, they’ll look to put the tie beyond Inter early.
Inter Milan, 2023's runners-up, have the pedigree and defensive organisation to frustrate which should make it a good fixture.
At 4/1, the Italians look long for a reason and Barcelona will be confident of carrying a lead into the second leg.
| Barcelona v Inter Milan - 1st Leg | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Barcelona | 3/5 | 62.5% |
| Draw | 16/5 | 23.8% |
| Inter Milan | 4/1 | 20.0% |
