Contrary to expectations, the first leg of the semi-final that took place early this morning (2am on April 30) ended in favor of the visiting team PSG. Arsenal failed to take advantage of their home field to get 3 points. This defeat means that they will have to face many difficulties when they have to play at PSG's Parc des Princes stadium to find victory. This seems "impossible" when in the first leg, PSG played better than Arsenal and when playing at home, PSG's strength increases tremendously.

The remaining semi-final will take place in the early morning of May 1st, with Barca facing Inter Milan, who are also considered evenly matched. In the last 6 official matches, Barca only lost to Dortmund in the second leg of the quarter-finals, which was also the only match they were allowed to lose, having won 4-0 in the first leg. Last weekend, Real Madrid's star-studded squad could not stop Barca from winning the Copa del Rey in extra time after an exciting 90 minutes.
In 2025, Barca were unbeaten in 14 official home matches (won 11, drew 3). In 9 of these matches, the Catalan giants "gave" their opponents at least 3 goals.

Inter made it to the semi-finals with flying colours, but their form has been worrying. They have suffered three consecutive defeats against Bologna, Milan (Coppa Italia) and Roma. Inter have been eliminated from the Coppa Italia and their chances of winning the Scudetto are looking slim as they are three points behind Napoli.
In the three disastrous matches above, Inter did not score any goals.
With such poor form, the possibility of Inter getting points in Spain is very difficult. However, there are also opinions that, although Inter have had difficulties in the domestic league, they have always played well in European cups. Who knows, they might rise in a period of crisis, surprising the Champions League title candidate. So do not underestimate this difficult opponent.

Coach Simone Inzaghi is very worried about the first leg of the semi-final. |
In the last 6 confrontations between the two sides in the Champions League in Spain, Barca completely dominated with 5 wins and 1 draw. With high form, good physical condition and home field advantage, Barca is capable of having a big win to advance to the final.
Barca will be without two central midfielders, Marc Casado, Marc Bernal and especially striker Robert Lewandowski due to injury. As for Inter, if Marcus Thuram does not recover in time, Marko Arnautovic will take the French striker's place in attack. Defender Benjamin Pavard is unlikely to be fit enough to start.
