This Wednesday, an exciting second leg match of the UEFA Champions League semifinals will take place at the Giuseppe Meazza stadium between Inter Milan and Barcelona. The match comes after a 3-3 draw at the Olympic Lluís Companys stadium.
Inter arrives at this clash with Barcelona after narrowly defeating Hellas Verona in Serie A, sitting just three points behind Napoli with three matchdays left in the competition. There is uncertainty about whether Inter's captain, Lautaro Martínez, will be part of the starting team after suffering a strain in the first leg against the Spanish side.
On the other hand, Barcelona comes from a 2-1 victory over Valladolid in La Liga, getting closer to the local title as they are only four points behind Real Madrid with four matches remaining. The good news for Barcelona is the return of Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, who could not participate in the first leg due to a muscle injury.
The probable lineups for the match would be as follows: Inter: Yann Sommer; Alessandro Bastoni, Francesco Acerbi, Yann Aurel Bisseck; Federico Dimarco, Henrik Mkhitaryan, Hakan Calhanoglu, Nicolo Barella, Denzel Dumfries; Mehdi Taremi or Lautaro Martínez and Marcus Thuram. Barcelona: Wojciech Szczesny; Gerard Martín, Pau Cubarsí, Íñigo Martínez, Jules Kounde; Pedri, Frenkie de Jong; Raphinha, Dani Olmo, Lamine Yamal; Ferrán Torres or Robert Lewandowski.
The referee appointed for this match is Polish Szymon Marciniak, and the broadcast will be handled by Fox Sports and ESPN sports signals. The duel promises to be exciting and full of expectations, with both teams seeking a place in the coveted Champions League final.
