Recent form

Inter Milan

Inter Milan's recent form has been patchy, with the Nerazzurri experiencing a mixed bag of results. The team have managed just one win in their last six matches, a narrow 1-0 victory over Hellas Verona in Serie A. Notably, Inter endured a concerning three-match losing streak across all competitions, falling to AS Roma, AC Milan in the Coppa Italia, and Bologna in Serie A. Their defensive record has been particularly worrying, conceding 10 goals in six games, including a high-scoring 3-3 draw against Barcelona in the Champions League. Despite their struggles, Inter have shown resilience in European competition, holding their own against both Barcelona and Bayern Munich. The team's goal-scoring output has been modest, averaging just one goal per game, while their defence has been leaking goals at a rate of 1.67 per match, resulting in a negative goal difference of -4 over this period.

Barcelona

Barcelona have shown impressive form in their recent fixtures, with four wins in their last six matches across all competitions. The Catalan giants have been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring an impressive 14 goals in these six games, averaging 2.33 goals per match. Their defensive record, however, has been somewhat shaky, conceding 12 goals in the same period. Notably, Barcelona have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals. The standout result was a thrilling 4-3 victory over RC Celta, while their most recent outing saw them secure a hard-fought 2-1 away win against Real Valladolid. Despite a heavy 3-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, Barcelona have shown resilience by going unbeaten in their last five matches, including an impressive 3-2 triumph over arch-rivals Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey.

Recent home/away form

Inter Milan

Inter Milan's recent home form has been a mixed bag, with the Nerazzurri struggling to maintain consistency at the San Siro. Despite winning three of their last six home matches, Inter have suffered two consecutive defeats in their most recent outings, including a heavy 3-0 loss to local rivals AC Milan in the Coppa Italia. The team's goal-scoring record has been somewhat underwhelming, averaging just 1.33 goals per game, while their defence has been equally shaky, conceding at the same rate. Interestingly, 67% of Inter's recent home games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting that matches at the San Siro tend to be high-scoring affairs. However, the team has managed only one clean sheet in their last six home fixtures, highlighting potential defensive vulnerabilities that opponents may look to exploit.

Barcelona

Barcelona have been in impressive form away from home, winning five of their last six matches across all competitions. The Catalan giants are currently on a four-game winning streak on the road, demonstrating their resilience in hostile environments. Their away performances have been particularly strong defensively, with three clean sheets in these six matches. The standout result was a high-scoring 4-2 victory against Atlético de Madrid in La Liga, showcasing Barcelona's attacking prowess. Despite a setback in their Champions League fixture against Borussia Dortmund, where they conceded three goals, Barcelona have maintained a positive goal difference of +4 in their recent away games. Their ability to score consistently, averaging 1.67 goals per game, while limiting opponents to just one goal per match on average, underlines their balanced approach to away fixtures.
