Barcelona look to put their UEFA Champions League campaign back on track as Inter Milan pay a visit to Camp Nou on Wednesday night.
The five-time champions could only manage a 0-0 draw against Borussia Dortmund in Game-1, in what was a very uninspiring performance from Ernesto Valverde’s men.
Inter Milan are no different as they dropped two huge points at home against Slavia Praha. In a possible group of death, which also has German giants Borussia Dortmund, that result could back to haunt Antonio Conte’s men.
