Barcelona vs Inter Recent Form
Barcelona is in excellent form, but only when it comes to the domestic league. Looking at their last nine outings, they recorded seven wins and only two losses. However, both those losses came in the Champions League and against competitor teams. They lost to Bayern Munich (2:0) and Inter Milan (1:0), all after destroying Viktoria Plzen 5:1.
Blaugrana has seven wins and one draw in La Liga. They are on a seven-game win run, with the latest coming this week against Celta Vigo by 1:0. Pedri scored a somewhat lucky goal as the ball came off the bar to go into the net. Earning the Catalan club a new win.
Inter were on a two-game slump prior to the first match with Barcelona. They dropped points against Udinese (3:1) and Roma (2:1). But then they recorded two wins in a row. First, the mentioned one against Blaugrana (1:0) and then versus Sassuolo (2:1). But the game against I Neroverdi was not easy at all. It was thanks to a brace by the experienced Edin Dzeko that I Nerazzurri managed to get a win.
Barcelona vs Inter Recent Matchups
Looking at the head-to-head comparison between the two, Barcelona is historically much more successful. They won six games out of 11 total and drew three. Inter has only two wins versus Blaugrana, one of them being the most recent one last week.
In the mentioned game, Barcelona was perhaps a better team but managed to concede a goal in the dying moments of the first half. Hakan Calhanoglu’s goal later proved to be the deciding one for the contest.
However, Inter won after a lot of controversies, as the referee denied Barca’s claim for a penalty. Prior to that, Barcelona won both games as the two met in the group stages of the 2019/20 Champions League season.
Barcelona vs Inter Stats & Analysis
Barcelona started their Champions League campaign with a stellar win over Viktoria Plzen. They scored five goals, with Lewandowski scoring a stellar hat-trick. But within the next two contests, Barca hasn’t managed to score a single goal, while conceding three in two games.
What goes in favour of Barca is that they never stopped attacking and had the better of their opponents in both games. But the ball simply didn’t want to go into the net.
As far as Inter Milan goes, they have somewhat exceeded their expectations so far in the Champions League. Being that Baryen Munich and Barcelona are heavy favourites to go through, it is interesting to see that they already have two wins in three games.
But their goal-scoring record is nothing to write home about. They have a 3:2 goal tally and will need to improve in front of the goal if they want to go through.
Barcelona vs Inter Prediction
Barca is the favoured team, but at odds of 1.44 does not really represent a lot of value betting-wise. On the other hand, Inter is a massive underdog at 8.00, but we can’t really say that they are going to repeat the same success as last week.
Since we think that Barca is going to go guns blazing from the very start, a good option would be wagering on the home team to lead at the half and win at full time at 2.15. A correct score of 2:0 is very much possible and quite tempting at 8.00 odds.
