Champions League semi-final action resumes on Tuesday — find how you can watch it in the US, and where to find the Inter Milan vs Barcelona TV channel as we preview the game second leg below.
A breathless first leg in Catalonia saw Inter Milan lead on three separate occasions, only to have their advantage wiped by a spirited Barcelona.
The LaLiga leaders head to Milan having displayed why many are labelling them as Europe’s preeminent side this season, but Inter also showed their high-risk, tight-rope act style football to be frail.
Before last week’s first leg we highlighted how Inter could capitalise on Barcelona’s organisational vulnerabilities from set pieces, which came to fruition after the Nerazzurri scored two of their three goals from corners.
With Barcelona unyielding in their commitment to playing high octane football, Simone Inzaghi’s game plan is likely to be similar for the second leg, although their return to home soil adds another spanner in the works for Barca, who will be met with a hostile atmosphere.
Last week was a true footballing spectacle, so make sure you check where to find the Inter Milan vs Barcelona TV channel and how to watch below.

Inter Milan vs Barcelona Team News
Inter have been handed a huge boost ahead of Tuesday, with captain Lautaro Martinez declared fit enough to start having limped off in the first leg.
They will also welcome back Hakan Calhanoglu after both he and Simone Inzaghi both served one-match suspensions over the weekend.
However, this fixture is likely to arrive too soon for Bejamin Pavard, who is still struggling with an ankle sprain.
As for Barcelona, Marc Andre Ter Stegen made his first start after months on the sidelines last time out, but Hansi Flick has confirmed Wojciech Szczesny will return for this clash.
Starting full-backs Jules Kounde and Alejandro Balde will be the notable absentees for Barca, but top scorer Robert Lewandowski has been named in the squad for Tuesday after missing the first leg.
Inter Milan possible starting lineup: Sommer; Bisseck, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Arnautovic, Thuram
Barcelona possible starting lineup: Szczesny; Garcia, Araujo, Cubarsi, Martinez; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Olmo, Raphinha; Torres
Inter Milan vs Barcelona Prediction
It is hard to see Barcelona playing any other way but their high-pressing, high-intensity attacking football, which likely means goals can be expected.
This left them vulnerable to Inter’s game plan in the first leg, however, with the Italian side unlocking them on three occasions.
Therefore, it isn’t inconceivable that Inter will score again, particularly at the San Siro where they have racked up the most goals on home soil in Serie A.
Despite Inter’s impeccable game plan almost coming true, there was something utterly irresistible about the way Barcelona carved open one of Europe’s best defences.
17-year-old Lamine Yamal made Federico Dimarco look amateurish at times in the first leg, and he enjoyed bundles of joy on the right-hand side, which in turn freed up Ferran Torres and Raphinha in the Barcelona attack, who both netted on the night.
The Blaugrana have shown themselves to be far more resilient under Flick than the spineless teams of the past five years, and although there are likely to be bumps along the way, we expect them to book their ticket to the final on May 31.
Prediction: Inter 1 – 2 Barcelona
