Inter Milan vs Barcelona: prediction for the Champions League fixture
On October 4, Inter Milan welcome Barcelona to San Siro for the Champions League match. The hosts lost their previous two games. Can Barcelona take advantage of the opponents' poor form? Look out for our prediction below.
Command Analysis
Inter
ItalyInter Milan looked solid in the first games of the season. After two victories in a row, the Nerazzurri seemed like the main contenders for the Scudetto. However, the team lost its momentum and lost too many points in the following games, thus dropping to the 9th line in the standings. Simone Inzaghi made several tactical mistakes in the last rounds.
For example, last weekend, Inter lost (1:2) to AS Roma, who have similar problems at the start of the season. In the Champions League, the Nerazzurri lost to Bayern Munich (0:2), but managed to get a win against the main outsider of the group, Viktoria Plzen (2:1). There is still a chance for Inter to qualify for the playoffs, but they need to step up their game.
Barcelona
SpainXavi's Barcelona reminds us of the good old days, when the Blaugrana were one of the most exciting teams to watch. Barcelona were held to a goalless draw in the opening round of La Liga, but since then recorded six straight victories. In the last match, Xavi's men prevailed over Mallorca (1:0). After seven rounds of the tournament, Barcelona top the table, but they are level on points with the 2nd Real Madrid.
Barcelona's Champions League campaign has not been as successful as their La Liga performance. They crushed Viktoria Plzen (5:1) at home in the first match, but then suffered a defeat to Bayern Munich (0:2). Currently, the team is 2nd in the group.

Tip and bets
Inter Milan have performed poorly in recent games, and this can be bad news for Diego Simeone who has made too many mistakes at the start of the season. Romelu Lukaku is unavailable for the team at the moment, but that is not the only concern for the Italian side. Barcelona, on the other hand, have been enjoying a good run of form lately. Xavi has all of his most important players in the ranks, and his team should get the upper hand in this fixture.
Our prediction – Asian handicap (-1) to Barcelona
Barcelona saved energy over the weekend, while Inter Milan fought a tough battle against Roma. The Spanish team will be in better physical shape, plus extremely motivated to find redemption for their defeat in Munich. The Nerazzurri are unreliable on defense, so we predict a confident two-goal victory for the visitors.
Second bet - Barcelona to win by 2 goals
