OFFICIAL:<\/strong> The starting lineups for Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan and Hansi Flick’s FC Barcelona<\/a><\/strong> for the second leg of the UEFA Champions League 2024\/25 semi-finals<\/strong> are now confirmed. Both teams are going all out in search of qualification for the final in Munich on May 31.<\/p> Hansi Flick<\/strong> is making one change from the first leg at Montju\u00efc. Eric Garc\u00eda<\/strong> will take the place of the injured Jules Kound\u00e9<\/strong> at right-back, while Gerard Mart\u00edn<\/strong> remains in the lineup in place of the injured Balde. In the center of defense, Pau Cubars\u00ed<\/strong> will once again partner I\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez.<\/p> Similarly, Frenkie de Jong will occupy the pivot position<\/strong>. Pedri and Dani Olmo complete the midfield, while Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, and Ferran Torres form the attacking trident.<\/p> Bar\u00e7a’s starting XI (OFFICIAL):<\/strong><\/p> Bar\u00e7a’s bench (substitute players):<\/strong><\/p> Bar\u00e7a’s injured players:<\/strong><\/p> Bar\u00e7a’s sanctioned players:<\/strong><\/p> Hansi Flick is once again tweaking his defensive line due to injuries. We analyze them:<\/p> Bar\u00e7a puts out its best available XI<\/strong>, looking to seal the ticket to the Champions League final. Cubars\u00ed and I\u00f1igo will once again lead the defense, with Eric Garc\u00eda and Gerard Mart\u00edn on the flanks. Frenkie and Pedri direct the midfield, while Dani Olmo will once again be the attacking midfielder, behind the trident formed by Lamine, Raphinha, and Ferran.<\/p> Goalkeeper and defense:<\/strong><\/p> A defense with tweaks:<\/strong> Eric Garc\u00eda returns as right-back due to Jules Kound\u00e9’s absence. Pau Cubars\u00ed will partner I\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez in the center of defense. Gerard Mart\u00edn also remains in the eleven.<\/p> \t<\/li> <\/ul> Midfield:<\/strong><\/p> Frenkie de Jong returns, and Gavi will be on the bench.<\/strong> Flick also keeps Dani Olmo in the attacking midfield. The Terrassa native has been fundamental in the last two league games, scoring against Celta and Mallorca.<\/p> \t<\/li> <\/ul> Attack:<\/strong><\/p> Raphinha, again, will be the left winger<\/strong>, with Lamine on the right and Ferran as ‘9’. In the center of the field, Pedri and Olmo will be the creative footballers of the team, giving mobility and clarity to the Azulgrana game.<\/p> \t<\/li> <\/ul> Inter’s starting XI:<\/strong> Sommer; Bisseck, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, \u00c7alhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Lautaro and Thuram.<\/p> \t<\/li> \t For his part, Simone Inzaghi maintains his starting lineup from the first leg<\/strong>. Benjamin Pavard is missing due to an ankle injury suffered last week against Roma (0-1). Also notable is the starting lineup of Dimarco, who suffered a lot in the one-on-one with Lamine Yamal in the first leg of the semi-finals.<\/p> Lautaro Mart\u00ednez, now recovered from his muscle ailments<\/strong>, will also be in the starting lineup, while Mkhitaryan also enters the XI as a central midfielder in place of Zielinski. Dumfries, meanwhile, will be the right-back. Bisseck, Acerbi, and Bastoni will be the center-backs, with Barella and \u00c7alhanoglu completing the midfield. Up front, Marcus Thuram and Mehdi Taremi will be the forwards.<\/p> The injuries of Jules Kound\u00e9, Alejandro Balde, Marc Casad\u00f3, Marc Bernal, and Pablo Torre pose a significant challenge for FC Barcelona in this decisive stretch of the season. Below, we detail the individual impact of each absence on Hansi Flick’s team.<\/p> Impact:<\/strong> Balde provides depth, speed, and attacking prowess on the left flank. His absence, although important, has been partially covered by Gerard Mart\u00edn, who has performed correctly in defense and attack.<\/p> \t<\/li> \t Consequences:<\/strong> The team loses offensive capacity and surprise on that side, although defensive solidity is maintained. According to recent analysis, Balde’s absence is significant but, of the current absences, it is the one that has the least impact thanks to the performance of his replacement.<\/p> \t<\/li> <\/ul> FC Barcelona’s starting lineup against Inter Milan<\/h2>
