Inter vs. Barcelona in the Champions League semifinal: time, how to watch, and probable lineups
Lautaro Martínez's Inter Milan host Lamine Yamal's Barcelona at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium for the rematch of the Champions League semi-finals. The first leg in Catalonia ended 3-3, and the final will be decided this Tuesday at 4 p.m. Argentina time, broadcast on Fox Sports, ESPN, and Disney+.
Inter, under Simone Inzaghi, finished fourth in the league, also two points behind Liverpool, and subsequently eliminated Feyenoord in the round of 16 and Bayern Munich in the last 16. They come into this match after defeating Hellas Verona in Serie A, a competition in which they sit second, three points behind Napoli.
The big question mark for this match is Lautaro Martínez. The Nerazzurri's captain and top scorer, El Toro, suffered an injury in the first leg and his presence on the pitch is unconfirmed despite manager Inzaghi's optimism. Will he start?
Barcelona, managed by Hansi Flick, arrives at this stage having finished second in the Champions League standings, two points behind leaders Liverpool, and having previously eliminated Benfica and Borussia Dortmund. Furthermore, they still have the dream of a treble: they have already won the Copa del Rey and are four points ahead in La Liga, meaning they could secure two more titles this month.
The match will be played on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.
