Fresh from lifting the Copa del Rey at the weekend, Barcelona have their tails up. Lamine Yamal and Raphinha continue to light up almost any pitch they step onto, while Pau Cubarsi is still in his teens and leads the defense impressively. Yes, they lost a dead-rubber quarter-final second leg to Borussia Dortmund last time out in the UCL — their only defeat of 2025 in all competitions — and are without injured center-forward Robert Lewandowski, but Hansi Flick's bright young side are flying right now.
Inter were also in fine form, but back-to-back Serie A defeats to Bologna and Roma have clipped their wings slightly. Lautaro Martínez has scored 21 goals in all competitions this season, including one in each of his last five Champions League appearances. The Argentine was central to their 2-1 win at Bayern Munich in the quarter-final second leg — a result that has taken the Nerazzurri to their second semi-final in three seasons. The three-time winners are anxiously awaiting the return of Marcus Thuram up front.
