Of course, their minds will certainly be set on a victory – more or less comfortable – but in reality, they could settle for at least a draw, if ever their best does not seem to be enough to trample on the Nerazzurri.
On the other hand, Inter will also concentrate on... Read full article »

Barca brilliantly bounced back from a weak form that saw them go two games without a win in the league and the Champions League, but another challenge is still awaiting them away from home.
The First Leg
One could expect this game to be dominated by the Catalans, bearing in mind that Barcelona have successfully regained their shape; yet, it is the first leg’s story which seems to make the excitement ahead of this game huge.
Barcelona were stunned by 2 goals to 1 in their own stadium several days ago by the Russian side Rubin Kazan, and unquestionably, it was a match the home side could clearly have turned into their favor. Nevertheless, mistakes in the defense, as well as lack of precision in front of goal cost them an upset, as they went on to miss another 3 precious points, which could have extended their lead at the top of table with 7 good points.

Yes, it is Jose Mourinho’s Inter Milan who find themselves in such an awkward position.
An early goal from Mikhalik stunned the entire home crowd at the Giuseppe Meazza whereas an own goal from Lucio inflicted more anger than sorrow in the fans’ hearts on the night when Inter Milan could not find their way out against Dynamo Kyiv.
However, Dejan Stankovic felt relief over disappointment concerning his side’s ability to avoid defeat.
He explained:
“It was important not to get beaten because if we had done so, we’d be out of the contest.

Looking at the two sides presented by the fixture of the match which is set to take place at the Camp Nou on Tuesday, it is easy to think that the encounter will be a matter of favorites and underdogs; yet, the fact that both teams have little knowledge about each other is – in fact – what makes the game unpredictable.
Two sides that have never met before
Barcelona got the chance to top their table, but with only 4 points though, following their 0-0 draw at the San Siro, and their 2-0 home win against Dynamo Kiev. Eventually, with this achievement already done, the Catalans will surely look to keep their lead at the top of their group by beating their Russian opponents, so as to make sure that contenders Inter Milan and Kiev don’t surpass them in the standings.
The Spanish giants indeed have a lot of chances to humble their fellow-European visitors, but still, they will need to be cautious and take control of the match right from the very start, before Rubin Kazan cause what would be considered as an “upset”.
