Barcelona: 5 tough matches for Ernesto Valverde to end 2019
Last Fixture in the Champions League
After hosting Mallorca, Barcelona will visit Milano, where they’ll face the Nerazzurri. Inter Milan, who are led by Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku will give trouble to the Catalan giants. The strikers for Inter Milan have had an outstanding season equaling a total of 24 goals between them.
Barcelona, already qualified to the round of 16, will visit San Siro, a stadium that they haven’t won in four visits to the San Siro (Barcelona has succeeded in that stadium against AC Milan).
Winning against Inter means that they could have in their hands the fate of Inter by possibly eliminating them from the Champions League only in Borussia Dortmund beats Slavia Prague. Barcelona will be looking to finish the group stage without a loss, and it will be challenging to do that against a team that’s been in the spotlight since the start of the season.
Barcelona, already first of their group, will evade being put in the bracket alongside teams like PSG, Bayern München, Manchester City, and Juventus. There are still teams yet to be placed in their groups in the last fixture for the UEFA Champions League. It will be an exciting outcome to see who they will face when the draw for the round of 16 occurs.
