INTER MILAN and Barcelona are two great names on the European stage, but they look set to be battling it out to remain in the Champions League with Bayern Munich making a great start in the section.
Both sides have already come off second best to the Bavarian giants and they will approach this game with contrasting confidence levels after two very different recent domestic results.
Barca have shown plenty of glimpses they are back to something approaching their old selves. They have won six out of seven games in la Liga and that game they drew was their opening match of the season.
Of course, their talisman is the brilliant Robert Lewandowski. He netted the only goal of the game at the weekend in their 1-0 win at Mallorca to make it 12 goals in just nine games so far for the predatory Pole.
But Inter are struggling domestically and their weekend loss to former boss Jose Mourinho’s Roma made it four wins and four losses so far in Serie A and they are barely above mid-table.
The pressure is mounting on manager Simone Inzaghi with fans unhappy with performances and results and the last thing he will want is a visit from born-again Barca.
