Barcelona v Inter Champions League semi-final: kick-off time, TV live stream, Team news
Barcelona hosts Inter Milan on Wednesday, April 30, in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals.
Barcelona, who have been performing exceptionally well this season under German coach Hansi Flick, are seeking to secure a place in the final early in the first leg by securing a comfortable result that will facilitate their progress in the second leg. This is in line with the team’s quest to win the title, which has not been won since 2015, especially after the early exits of most of the title contenders.
The team enters the match in high spirits after defeating Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final, and is also on the verge of clinching the La Liga title.
Barcelona will be without Robert Lewandowski due to an injury he sustained in the La Liga match against Celta Vigo.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, are not in their best mental state. After sharing the league lead with Napoli until Week 33, Week 34 saw the Italian giants lose their lead after a slump against Roma, which left them three points clear at the top of the table. This came just days after losing the Coppa Italia semi-final to Milan, so the Champions League represents the team’s last chance to salvage the season.
Inter hopes to continue their impressive form in the Champions League, especially after defeating Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals 4-3 on aggregate. This gives Inzaghi and his team a morale boost to defeat Barcelona.
The two teams have played five previous matches, indicating Barcelona’s relative superiority, with two wins, one win for Inter Milan, and two draws.
