The big day is here. Today, is scheduled Barcelona-Inter, valid for the’first leg of the Champions League semifinal. Reduced by three consecutive defeats (two in the league and one in the Coppa Italia), Inzaghi’s team is looking for the big one on the field of the blaugrana.

Inzaghi, in spite of the very delicate moment, has two reasons to smile, namely the recovery of Thuram and also that of Dumfries (already seen in the match against Roma). Being able to deploy especially the French striker alongside Lautaro Martinez, who has lately appeared lackluster in goal, is crucial to trying to hurt Flick’s team. The two, whenever they have played together, have been a match for each other. Bayern Munich, one of Thu-La’s recent victims,

knows something about that.

In fact, except for Pavard (injured), Inzaghi may field the typical formation, the one that has given him the most satisfaction. In front of Sommer, Bastoni, Acerbi and Bisseck will act. On the outsides, space for Dimarco and Dumfries.

Classic midfield with Mkhitaryan, Calhanoglu and Barella. Up front, as mentioned, space for Thu-La. It should be mentioned that, on the other side, there will be no Lewandowski (injured). In his place, along with Yamal (in his 100th appearance with Barcelona) and Raphina, will be Ferran Torres.
