Barcelona hosts Inter in round 2 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 2nd at Camp Nou (Barcelona)
How often do you hear about Barcelona apart from Messi? The appearance of an Argentinean helper-outer brought significant changes to the team. The coach is not important in Barcelona because everything depends on Messi. It leads to predictability when Leo is on the pitch. And hopelessness when he is injured. The starting defeat to Athletic (1: 0) was smeared with the landslide victory over Betis (5:2). A draw with Osasuna - with the defeat of Valencia. And after the loss to Granada, Barca beat Getafe and Villarreal. The revival of the Blaugranes has become a kind of style. Barca does not win repeatedly but tries to justify itself after failures. But the team manages to do it only because of the low class of rivals. In the Champions League, opponents do not forgive this. And Inter, which has something to prove and show, will surely not miss the moment.

Inter is entirely different. For many years, the Nerazzurri did not justify its former greatness. Mancini, de Boer, Pioli, and Spaletti did not instill the victory gene into Inter. Handanovic, Candreva, and Brozovic remained in the team. Over the past 5 years, the Nerazzurri have not even been in the prize places of Serie A. The sad period has dragged on, but the students have not changed their opinions about Inter. The next restructuring and change of course of the club have been outlined. This summer, the Nerazzurri conducted an audit. The management got rid of problematic Icardi, giving him on loan to PSG, and bought Lazaro and Politano. And they took the failed duo from Manchester United - Lukaku and Alexis. Significant investments should bring progress on the pitch. Inter earned 18 points out of 18 possible in Serie A, and it is outranking Juventus. Only a home draw with Slavia in the first round of the Champions League can be confusing. The Nerazzurri were more active, but the Czechs' stamina restrained Inter. Inter does not stand out in a quartet with Borussia and Barca, but the fortress at Camp Nou is the key to reaching the playoffs. Barcelona will experience serious problems without Messi.
In this season, Barca played 3 games at Camp Nou, where it scored 12 goals in total. “As many as four goals per game on average”, and Inter will not concede so many? Yes, you heard me right. Barcelona destroyed Valencia and Betis, being disgraced. The emergence of motivation encourages the Blaugranes but fogs the mind. Those victories were emotional, and it’s not about the cold calculation of Valverde. As you know, pragmatism is a synonym for Italians. Conte proved that defense is above all things on the example of trips to Milan and Sampdoria. Besides Napoli and Fiorentina, no one scored Inter more than two goals.
Prediction for the match: Barcelona to score under 2.0 goals
