Inter

 

Last week's first leg saw the teams share 6 goals. Inter took a first minute lead through Thuram and Dumfries doubled the advantage on 21 minutes but Barca scored twice to level things up by half time. Dumfries put Inter back in front on 63 minutes but goalkeeper Sommer put through his own net 2 minutes later and there was no further scoring.

 

Inter had booked their semi final place with a 4-3 aggregate win over Bayern. They won the first leg 2-1 in Munich (Martinez and Frattesi) and an action packed second half of the return finished 2-2 (Martinez and Pavard) . Inter had to much for Feyenoord in the Ro16, winning the first leg 2-0 away from home and following up with a 2-1 victory in Milan. Inter won 6, drew 1 and lost 1 of their league phase matches to finish fourth and advance straight to the Round of 16 and their only defeat came away to Leverkusen (1-0).

 

In Serie A Inter bounced back from successive defeats with a 1-0 home win over Verona at the weekend and they are in second spot, 3 points adrift of Napoli with 3 rounds of matches to go.

 

 

Barcelona

 

Lamine Yamal (24') and Ferran Torres scored the first half goals for Barca last week, they also hit the woodwork twice in a cracking contest.

 

Barca won the first leg of their quarter final match up with Dortmund 4-0 on home turf (Raphinha a brace for Lewandowski and Lamal). The return in Dortmund was nowhere near as straight forward, Barca were 2-0 down at one stage but an own goal calmed the nerves. They eventually lost 3-1 on the night but went through 5-3 on aggregate. Barcelona saw off Benfica in the Ro16, coming through 4-1 on aggregate after winning the first leg in Lisbon 1-0 and the return 3-1. They finished as runners up to Liverpool in the league phase with a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. They lost their first match away to Monaco before reeling off 6 straight wins and a 2-2 draw at home to Atalanta.

 

Barca were 2-1 winners away to Valladolid at the weekend and with 4 rounds of La Liga matches to go they top the standings, 4 points clear of Real Madrid.

 

 

The Betting

 

Inter are 2.05/1 to win the second leg with the draw at 2.95/1 and Barca are 23/20

 

A game of 3 goals or more is 4/10 and its also 4/10 for both teams to score.

 

Note, the above markets are regulation time

 

To qualify for the final Inter are 12/10 and they are 4/1 to go on and lift the trophy

 

Barca are 13/20 to reach the final and 9/4 to win the UCL outright

 

The Verdict

 

This should be a good watch and I see scope for goals although perhaps not the avalanche we saw last week. Denzil Dumfries had a cracking game in the first leg with a brace and an assist and on the back of that I quite like his price to pop up with a goal in regulation time.

 

Bets: Anytime goalscorer Denzil Dumfries at 42/10 with Betway
