Barcelona vs Inter Milan
Champions League 2019/20 season
Venue: Camp Nou
Date: Wednesday 2nd October, 2019
Kick-off time: 3pm EST
Barcelona are looking to kickstart their Champions League campaign as Inter Milan head to Camp Nou this evening
Barca have had a difficult start to the season, losing two of their opening seven La Liga games and holding on for a goalless draw at Borussia Dortmund in their opening Group F game.
Inter also drew their opening game at home to Slavia Prague, but Antonio Conte’s side sit top of Serie A with six wins from six – and the Nerazzurri should offer the Blaugrana a real contest in Catalonia.
Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele have been passed fit to be included in the Barcelona squad to face Inter in the Champions League.
Inter without Lukaku.
Barcelona have only lost once in their last nine games versus Inter Milan (W4 D4 L1), losing at the San Siro in April 2010 (1-3).
Internazionale have lost five of their six visits to face Barcelona at the Camp Nou, winning the other in January 1970 in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (2-1), courtesy of goals from Roberto Boninsegna and Mario Bertini.
Inter have failed to score in more away games against Barcelona than they have versus any other team in European competition in their history (5/6).
Barcelona have won 29 of their last 32 Champions League games at the Camp Nou (D3), with their last defeat dating back to May 2013 against Bayern Munich (0-3).
