Barcelona hosts Inter Milan on Wednesday in a Champions League semifinal clash between two European giants trending in opposite directions. The Catalans arrive with momentum — winners of the Copa del Rey on Sunday and unbeaten at home in 2025. Inter, meanwhile, limp into Montjuïc on a three-match losing streak, scoreless throughout and suddenly adrift in Serie A’s title race.
Robert Lewandowski’s absence will sting, but Barcelona will carry the sharper edge up front. Raphinha and Lamine Yamal lead an attack that has scored 37 goals in 12 Champions League games (although 11 of those came from Lewandowski). Inter counter with a defense that has conceded just five goals in the tournament. Lautaro Martínez will need to do more than chase shadows if Simone Inzaghi’s side want to survive the first leg.
